Conversion of heat to light using Townes' Maser-Laser Engine: quantum optics and thermodynamic analysis
It is shown that thermal energy from a heat source can be converted to useful work in the form of maser-laser light by using a combination of a Stern-Gerlach device and stimulated emissions of excited particles in a maser-laser cavity. We analyze the populations of atoms or quantum dots exiting the...
