Charging performance of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger quantum battery

The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model has recently received considerable attention in condensed matter. Here, we investigate SSH-based charging protocols of quantum batteries (QBs) with N spins.

description The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model has recently received considerable attention in condensed matter. Here, we investigate SSH-based charging protocols of quantum batteries (QBs) with N spins. The hopping interaction induces ground state splitting, leading to different effects on the dimerization parameter to the QB in different quantum phase regimes. In the degenerate ground state regime, the dimerization parameter has little influence on the QB. In contrast, the dimerization parameter has a significantly quantum advantage in the fully nondegenerate ground state regime on energy and ergotropy. It also results in the dimerization spin pairs having larger occupations than other spins. Although the dimerization parameter can enhance the energy and ergotropy, the QB's capacity will decrease.
