Resonator-qutrits quantum battery

Abstract: Quantum batteries (QBs) are energy storage and transfer microdevices that open up new possibilities in energy technology. Here, we derive a resonator-qutrits quantum battery (QB) model consisting of a multi-modes resonator and $N$ superconducting transmon qutrits. We investigate the charging and self-discharging performance of the QB and discuss the roles of quantum coherence and quantum entanglement. The results show that environment noise is not always detrimental for QB systems. The QB with efficient charging, stable energy-storage and slow self-discharging processes can be realized by considering the dephasing noise and manipulating the energy gap. We find that the charing energy is positively related to coherence and entanglement while the stable energy and the self-discharing energy are negatively related to coherence. The phenomenon of the vanishing entanglement corresponds to the dynamic decoupling behavior of the QB's steady states. Our results provide a way to realize many-body QBs on superconducting circuits platform.
