  • A fluidic system with spatially reconfigurable hot spots generated by optical pumping of plasmonic nanorods is demonstrated, creating virtual barriers by generating local heating via photothermal conversion, for potential applications in chemical synthesis, lab-on-chip devices and microbiology.

  • Characterizing the performance of small thermal machines beyond their mean values is a key challenge in the thermodynamics of small systems, where fluctuations often dominate. This work extends Carnot’s result for reversible cycles to arbitrary-order moments of work and heat fluctuations, providing universal bounds in the quasistatic regime.”
