Stochastic thermodynamics, fluctuation theorems and molecular machines
TL;DR: Efficiency and, in particular, efficiency at maximum power can be discussed systematically beyond the linear response regime for two classes of molecular machines, isothermal ones such as molecular motors, and heat engines such as thermoelectric devices, using a common framework based on a cycle decomposition of entropy production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamics of information
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a theoretical framework for the thermodynamics of information based on stochastic thermodynamics and fluctuation theorems, review some recent experimental results, and present an overview of the state of the art in the field.

Work and information processing in a solvable model of Maxwell’s demon
TL;DR: A minimal model of an autonomous Maxwell demon, a device that delivers work by rectifying thermal fluctuations while simultaneously writing information to a memory register, offers a simple paradigm for investigating the thermodynamics of information processing by small systems.

Experimental test of Landauer’s principle in single-bit operations on nanomagnetic memory bits
TL;DR: An experimental investigation of the intrinsic energy loss of an adiabatic single-bit reset operation using nanoscale magnetic memory bits is reported, observing that the amount of dissipated energy in this process is consistent (within 2 SDs of experimental uncertainty) with the Landauer limit.

TL;DR: This realization provides experimental evidence that the irreversibility in a nonequilibrium dynamics can be mitigated by assessing microscopic information and applying a feed-forward strategy at the quantum scale.
