• Abstract: Maxwell's demon can be utilized to construct quantum information engines. While most of the existing quantum information engines harness thermal fluctuations, quantum information engines that utilize quantum fluctuations have recently been discussed. We propose a new type of genuinely quantum information engine that harnesses quantum fluctuations to achieve cumulative storage of useful work and unidirectional transport of a particle. Our scheme does not require thermalization, which eliminates the ambiguity in evaluating the power and velocity of our proposed engine in contrast to other existing quantum information engines that can transport a particle. We find a tradeoff relationship between the maximum achievable power and the maximum velocity. We also propose an improved definition of efficiency by clarifying all possible energy flows involved in the engine cycle.

  A quantum Szil'ard engine has been proposed, showing that the quantum steerability between a Maxwell's demon and a work medium can be beneficial to a work extraction task. We provide an example of the pure dephasing process, showing that the engine's quantumness can be degraded. In this work, we tackle this question by introducing a second demon who can access a control system and make the work medium pass through two dephasing channels in a manner of quantum superposition.
