Abstract
In this work, the quantum-mechanical properties of the strongly non-linear quantum oscillator described by the Pöschl-Teller [PT] model is examined. This model has a relation with two well-known models, the free particle [FP] in a box and the harmonic oscillator [HO], as described in our previous works [1–3]. Using the [PT] model, a quantum-mechanical analogue of the Joule-Brayton [JB] cycle and Otto cycle have been constructed through changes of both, the width of the well and its the quantum state. The efficiency of quantum engines based on the Pöschl-Teller-like potential is derived, which is analogous to classical thermodynamic engines.
