THERMODYNAMICS OF QUANTUM TRANSPORT
Interacting quantum dots provide a versatile platform for exploring thermoelectric transport, heat management, and information processing at the nanoscale. Our research focuses on the thermodynamics of capacitively coupled quantum-dot systems, with particular emphasis on quantum thermal logic gate devices. The central goal is to unravel fundamental thermodynamic constraints on energy-efficient quantum technologies and explore novel transport phenomena.

QUANTUM STOCHASTIC THERMODYNAMICS
We are interested in the thermodynamics of autonomous and non-autonomous classical and quantum systems driven away from equilibrium, with a particular emphasis on fluctuation theorems and linear response theory. A key objective is to understand how fundamental relations in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics ultimately emerge from microscopic dynamics, and how quantum effects modify standard classical thermodynamic bounds and its overall performance.

THERMODYNAMICS OF MOLECULAR MACHINES
Molecular machines provide a natural setting for investigating the interplay of heat, work, and information in small, fluctuating systems. Our interests include stochastic thermodynamic principles governing molecular motors, transporters, and information-processing mechanisms in biological systems. We are particularly interested in how feedback, internal degrees of freedom, and nonequilibrium fluctuations enable directed transport and energy conversion in such small molecular machines.
