Abstract: We investigate the local thermal transport in a quantum trimer of harmonic oscillators connected to two thermal baths. The coupling between them are augmented by complex phases which leads to the quantum control of the local atypical heat current between two oscillators connected to the same heat bath. Our study reveals that this atypical heat current is a consequence of the lifting of the dark mode and the modulation of this current is due to variation in system bath correlations. The proposed quantum system may find application in quantum thermal and memory devices by leveraging the heat current.

All-thermal reversal of heat currents using qutrits [0.0]
We propose the coherent coupling of two qutrits as a simultaneous refrigerator and heat pump of two reservoirs forming a system. This occurs thanks to the coupling to two other reservoirs which are out of equilibrium but do not inject heat in the system.

Limits for coherent optical control of quantum emitters in layered materials [49.596352607801784]
coherent control of a two-level system is among the most essential challenges in modern quantum optics. We use a mechanically isolated quantum emitter in hexagonal boron nitride to explore the individual mechanisms which affect the coherence of an optical transition under resonant drive. New insights on the underlying physical decoherence mechanisms reveals a limit in temperature until which coherent driving of the system is possible.

Mixing thermal coherent states for precision and range enhancement in quantum thermometry [0.0]
We propose the realization of a special mixture of thermal coherent states by coupling a thermal bath with a two-level system that is longitudinally coupled to a resonator. We find that the state of the resonator is a special mixture of two oppositely displaced thermal coherent states, whereas the two-level system remains thermal.

We show how to evaluate both contributions by taking advantage of the time scale separation associated with the overdamped regime. We find that non-trivial quantum corrections survive even when the temperatures are high compared to the frequency scale relevant for the overdamped dynamics of the system.
