A quantum-dot heat engine operating close to the thermodynamic efficiency limits

open access: yes, 2018
Cyclical heat engines are a paradigm of classical thermodynamics, but are impractical for miniaturization because they rely on moving parts. A more recent concept is particle-exchange (PE) heat engines, which uses energy filtering to control a thermally ...
