A quantum battery is a work reservoir that stores energy in quantum degrees of freedom. When immersed in an environment, an open quantum battery needs to be stabilized against free-energy leakage due to decoherence, unavoidably entailing entropy production. For this purpose we here propose a stabilization protocol given by a nonunitary open-loop control action able to compensate for the entropy increase and to maintain the open quantum battery in its highest ergotropy state. The protocol relies on nonselective, frequent, projective measurements that are interspersed by optimized time intervals. In accordance with a second-law-like inequality derived for the entropy production rate of the controlled battery, the proposed procedure results in minimized control power. The effectiveness of the method is finally tested on a qubit subject to decoherence, achieving an average fidelity value around 95%. |
