Physicists at Aalto University in Finland have built the first cyclic quantum thermal power machine. The construction is located in a superconducting circuit and converts tiny amounts of heat from a quantum refrigerator into measurable work. Thus, a research group led by academic professor Mikko Möttonen succeeds in proving that quantum technology has been working on for years.
