Abstract
We investigate the charging of a nonlinear quantum battery consisting of a single bosonic mode subject to a saturable nonlinearity, coherent driving, and dissipation. In contrast to Kerr-type anharmonicities, the saturable interaction induces a bounded and nonlinear distortion of the energy spectrum, leading to a progressive increase in the density of energy levels. We analyze the time evolution of the energy and ergotropy of the battery by solving a Lindblad master equation and show that the nonlinear spectral structure significantly affects both transient charging behavior and steady-state properties. Our results reveal that, for a broad range of parameters, the saturable nonlinearity enhances the maximum stored energy and modifies the ergotropy generation in the presence of losses. The interplay between dissipation and bounded spectral nonlinearity provides a controllable mechanism to tune energy storage and work extraction in bosonic quantum batteries.
