Physicists from Croatia, France, Italy develop new approach to quantum batteries

Author: Hari Alfeo

ZAGREB, 18 Oct (Hina) - A team of physicists from Croatia, France, and Italy has developed a new approach to quantum batteries that enables more efficient energy storage and prevents energy loss, the Ruđer Bošković Institute (IRB) said on Friday.

The research was led by PhD student Alberto Giuseppe Catalano from the IRB and the University of Strasbourg, under the mentorship of Fabio Franchini and Salvatore Marco Giampaolo, also from the IRB, in collaboration with Oliver Morsch from Italy’s National Research Council and Vittorio Giovannetti from the National Enterprise for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in Pisa.

The study was published in the prestigious journal PRX Quantum – Physical Review Journals, focusing on the phenomenon of "frustrated" quantum batteries.

This breakthrough paves the way for the first experimental work cycle of a battery designed to power technologies like quantum computers, simulators and sensors, according to the IRB.

One of the most interesting aspects of the research is its potential for real-world applications. The authors suggest that the quantum battery could be realised using Rydberg atoms, which are already being studied for their quantum properties. This brings the design of the battery closer to experimental verification and future use in advanced technologies.

As we progress in developing technologies like quantum computers, which require precise and efficient energy management, it is crucial to find reliable ways to store and transfer energy at the quantum level, Franchini has said.

Our work lays the foundation for future applications of quantum batteries in these advanced systems, he added.
