Thermally activated nonlocal amplification in quantum energy transport
Résumé
We will discuss the behavior of one or more elementary quantum systems (atoms, molecules, quantum dots,
etc) interacting with a stationary, simple and rich electromagnetic environment out of thermal equilibrium. Particular
attention will be devoted to the new features that this system offers toward the possibility to manipulate
collective atomic states and leading to improved performances in: creation and protection of entanglement,
quantum thermal machines, transport of excitations.
