• Abstract: We investigate relativistic effects on the performance of a quantum battery in an open quantum framework. We consider an Unruh-DeWitt detector driven by a coherent classical pulse as a quantum battery that is interacting with a massless scalar field through a quadratic coupling. The battery follows a trajectory composed of uniform acceleration along one direction, combined with constant four-velocity components in the orthogonal plane to the acceleration. Accelerated motion degrades the performance of the quantum battery rapidly in the absence of the orthogonal velocity component. We show that the quadratic scalar field coupling enhances coherence and stability in the presence of orthogonal velocity. We observe that decoherence is mitigated significantly, resulting in remarkable improvement in the battery capacity and efficiency compared to the case of the usual linear field coupling. This opens up the possibility of nonlinear environmental coupling enabling stored energy to be retained over longer durations, leading to more efficient operation of quantum devices.

  We investigate the performance of a one-dimensional dimerized XY chain as a spin quantum battery. We consider a charging protocol relying on the double quench of an internal parameter, namely the strength of the dimerization. In the latter, the energy stored is almost unaffected by the charging time and the precise values of the charging parameters, provided the quench crosses a quantum phase transition.

  Recently, an unconditional advantage has been demonstrated for the process of charging of a quantum battery in a collisional model. We consider a model where the battery is modeled by a quantum harmonic oscillator or a large spin, charged via repeated interactions with a stream of non-equilibrium qubit units. For both setups, we show that a quantum protocol can significantly outperform the most general adaptive classical schemes.
