Extracting and Storing Energy From a Quasi-Vacuum on a Quantum Computer
We explore recent advancements in the understanding and manipulation of
vacuum energy in quantum physics, with a focus on the quantum energy
teleportation (QET) protocol. Traditional QET protocols extract energy from
what we refer to as a ``quasi-vacuum'' state, but the extracted quantum energy
is dissipated into classical devices, limiting its practical utility. To
address this limitation, we propose an enhanced QET protocol that incorporates
an additional qubit, enabling the stored energy to be stored within a quantum
register for future use. We experimentally validated this enhanced protocol
using IBM superconducting quantum computers, demonstrating its feasibility and
potential for future applications in quantum energy manipulation.
