• Abstract: Quantum batteries are miniature energy storage devices and play a very important role in quantum thermodynamics. In recent years, quantum batteries have been extensively studied, but limited in theoretical level. Here we report the experimental realization of a quantum battery based on superconducting qubits. Our model explores dark and bright states to achieve stable and powerful charging processes, respectively. Our scheme makes use of the quantum adiabatic brachistochrone, which allows us to speed up the {battery ergotropy injection. Due to the inherent interaction of the system with its surrounding, the battery exhibits a self-discharge, which is shown to be described by a supercapacitor-like self-discharging mechanism. Our results paves the way for proposals of new superconducting circuits able to store extractable work for further usage.

• Quantum recharging by shortcut to adiabaticity [0.0]
  Under unitary transformation, ergotropy rather than energy plays an essential role in describing the accumulated useful work. We propose a fast and stable recharging protocol based on postselection and shortcut to adiabaticity. Our protocol is energy-saving and experimental-feasible, even in systems with the forbidden transition.

  We introduce a superconducting quantum battery model that demonstrates a quantum advantage while remaining feasible for experimental production. The model consists of two coupled superconducting qubits that interact during the unitary charging process while remaining in equilibrium with a thermal reservoir. We demonstrate that leveraging the collective effects of Josephson energies and the coupling energy between qubits allows for optimization, resulting in improved energy redistribution and a significant enhancement in charging efficiency.

• Hyperbolic enhancement of a quantum battery [0.0]
  We show how one can circumvent the problem of energy loss by proposing a quantum battery model. Namely, charging the battery quadratically with a short temporal pulse induces a hyperbolic enhancement in the stored energy. We show that when the driving is strong enough the useful work which can be extracted from the quantum battery, that is the ergotropy, is exactly equal to the stored energy.
