Minimal quantum thermal machine in a bandgap environment: non-Markovian features and anti-Zeno advantage

A minimal model of a quantum thermal machine is analyzed, where a driven two level working medium (WM) is embedded in an environment (reservoir) whose spectrum possesses bandgaps. The transition frequency of the WM is periodically modulated so as to be in alternating spectral overlap with hot or col...
