AbstractA general harmonic driving field was considered for improving the charging efficiency of the quantum battery system. Charge saturation was used to describe the charging efficiency, where the charging mode is divided into saturated and unsaturated. The relationships between the time‐dependent charge saturation and parameters of the general driving field were evaluated both analytically and numerically. The Floquet theorem was used to express time‐dependent charge saturation with the quasienergy and Floquet states of the system. The analytical and numerical results were used to identify the best parameter values for optimizing the charging efficiency.
