This project aims to create a molecular heat engine at the atomic scale to test theoretical predictions about efficiency improvements beyond classical limits. By leveraging quantum properties, the project seeks to enhance thermoelectric applications, including waste heat recovery and nanoscale cooling devices.
Heat engines are an integral part of our daily lives.
They power cars or produce electricity by converting heat into work.
Increasing their efficiency is very difficult and only marginal improvements have been achieved over the last decades.
Thus, to reach the ambitious climate goals, it is necessary to go beyond conventional technologies.
Atom-sized systems where quantum mechanical effects come into play could enable this: theory predicts that their efficiency can be boosted beyond the classica…
