Quantum synchronization is crucial for understanding complex dynamics and holds potential applications in quantum computing and communication. Therefore, assessing the thermodynamic resources required for finite-time synchronization in continuous-variable systems is a critical challenge. In the present work, we find these resources to be extensive for large systems.

Abstract Among the emerging technologies with prophesied quantum advantage, quantum communications has already led to fascinating demonstrations—including quantum teleportation to and from satellites. However, all optical communication necessitates the use of optical devices, the comprehensive quantum thermodynamic description of which is still severely lacking.
