Hybrid Qubit-Qutrit Quantum Battery: Nonclassicality and Energy Performance
Abstract
We propose and analyze a hybrid qubit-qutrit quantum battery (QB) based on a mixed spin-1/2 and spin-1 system interacting via an anisotropic Heisenberg exchange coupling in the presence of a homogeneous magnetic field. The nonclassical properties of the system are characterized using the l1-norm of coherence and negativity, which quantify quantum coherence and entanglement, respectively. The performance of the quantum battery is evaluated through key indicators such as ergotropy, power, and capacity. Our results reveal that both ergotropy and power exhibit oscillatory dynamics, while the capacity remains constant over time. We further investigate the influence of system parameters and magnetic field strength on both quantum correlations and battery performance, demonstrating that nonclassicality plays a crucial role in enhancing energy-storage efficiency. Importantly, we establish a connection between the theoretical model and an experimentally realizable nickel-radical molecular complex, showing that quantum coherence, entanglement, and efficient energy storage persist even at room temperature. These findings provide a realistic pathway toward the implementation of hybrid qubit-qutrit quantum batteries in solid-state molecular platforms.
