Quantacell: powerful charging of quantum batteries
Open accessAbstract
We study the problem of charging a quantum battery in finite time. We demonstrate an analytical optimal protocol for the case of a single qubit. Extending this analysis to an array of N qubits, we demonstrate that an N-fold advantage in power per qubit can be achieved when global operations are permitted. The exemplary analytic argument for this quantum advantage in the charging power is backed up by numerical analysis using optimal control techniques. It is demonstrated that the quantum advantage for power holds when, with cyclic operation in mind, initial and final states are required to be separable.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
The paper derives an analytical optimal protocol for charging a single-qubit quantum battery in finite time and extends it to arrays of N qubits. It shows that global entangling operations can yield an N-fold advantage in power per qubit over local parallel charging, even when initial and final states are separable.
Key findings
- For a single qubit, the power-optimal driving is along a geodesic at constant angular speed \(E_{\max}\), with no driving along the reference Hamiltonian direction.
- For an array of N qubits, global driving with the same maximum energy gap \(E_{\max}^{(N)}=N E_{\max}\) achieves an N-fold increase in power per qubit compared with parallel local driving.
- The quantum advantage persists under cyclic operation with separable initial and final states; entanglement appears only during the protocol.
- Numerical optimal control for full charging shows the minimum charging time scales as \(1/N\), and for a four-qubit solution entanglement across the 12–34 bipartition vanishes at the start and end.
Methods
- Analytical derivation for a single qubit using the von Neumann equation, Bloch-sphere parametrization, and optimization of a family of objective functions interpolating power and ergotropy under a trace-norm bound on the driving Hamiltonian.
- Extension to N-qubit arrays comparing parallel local driving with global entangling driving, with average work per qubit set to unity in the examples.
- Numerical optimal control for full charging of N qubits and for entanglement dynamics in a four-qubit numerical solution.
Limitations
- Stated: a full optimization over all possible unitary transformations is not analytically feasible, so the N-qubit advantage is demonstrated with a specific evolution.
- Stated: future work is needed to allow for degradation/purifying stages and to generalize the approach to open systems with noise and decoherence.
- Evident: the analysis assumes ideal cyclic unitary dynamics and purity preservation; no experimental implementation or realistic noise model is provided.

“Such infinitely powerful driving, however, would be in conflict with so-called quantum speed limits which bound the evolution time by the inverse mean energy (Margolus and Levitin 1998), or, alternatively, its variance (Mandelstam and Tamm 1945) and apply to time-dependent unitary evolution between any two quantum states (Deffner and Lutz 2013).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
