BOUNDS ON THE CAPACITY AND POWER OF QUANTUM BATTERIES

Bounds on the capacity and power of quantum batteries

Quantum batteries, composed of quantum cells, are expected to outperform their classical analogs.The origin of such advantages lies in the role of quantum correlations, which may arise during the charging and discharging processes performed on the battery.In this theoretical work, we introduce a systematic characterization of the relevant quantitie
