  • Title: Optimization of a relativistic quantum mechanical engine.
    Author: Peña FJ, Ferré M, Orellana PA, Rojas RG, Vargas P.
    Journal: Phys Rev E; 2016 Aug; 94(2-1):022109. PubMed ID: 27627248.
    Abstract:
    We present an optimal analysis for a quantum mechanical engine working between two energy baths within the framework of relativistic quantum mechanics, adopting a first-order correction. This quantum mechanical engine, with the direct energy leakage between the energy baths, consists of two adiabatic and two isoenergetic processes and uses a three-level system of two noninteracting fermions as its working substance. Assuming that the potential wall moves at a finite speed, we derive the expression of power output and, in particular, reproduce the expression for the efficiency at maximum power.
