Nonequilibrium transport and the fluctuation theorem in the thermodynamic behaviors of nonlinear photonic systems

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
Nonlinear multimode optical systems have attracted substantial attention due to their rich physical properties. Complex interplay between the nonlinear effects and mode couplings makes it difficult to understand the collective dynamics of photons ...

Enhancing Thermodynamics Education: Insights from Student Knowledge Assessments on (Ir)reversible Processes and (Non)equilibrium Phenomena

open access: yesEducation Sciences
Thermodynamics is a theory based on phenomenological premises and has wide applicability in science and technology. However, it remains one of the most challenging subjects to understand and teach, which makes it an excellent candidate for research and ...

Erasure of a nonequilibrium memory beyond Landauer's bound using levitated optomechanics with spatio-temporal optical control

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
Landauer’s principle provides a deep connection between information processing and thermodynamics by setting a lower limit on the energy consumption and heat production of logically irreversible transformations.

Thermoelectric efficiency of three-terminal quantum thermal machines

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
The efficiency of a thermal engine working in the linear response regime in a multi-terminal configuration is discussed. For the generic three-terminal case, we provide a general definition of local and non-local transport coefficients: electrical and ...

Entropy Production-Based Energy Efficiency Optimization for Wireless Communication Systems

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of the Communications Society
The relationship between energy dissipation and information has been extensively studied in the emerging field of stochastic thermodynamics, where entropy production plays a core role in measuring the energy loss of irreversible processes. To analyze and

Variational formulation of active nematic fluids: theory and simulation

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
The structure and dynamics of important biological quasi-two-dimensional systems, ranging from cytoskeletal gels to tissues, are controlled by nematic order, flow, defects and activity.
