    Abstract

    Entanglement has been identified as a key resource for enhancing charging performance in quantum batteries. We show that the kicked-Ising model at the self-dual point provides an explicit charging mechanism, where maximal entanglement growth yields maximal energy injection. Identifying the Floquet dynamics as a Clifford quantum cellular automata and considering exact diagonalization in momentum space, we analytically characterize the charging process, featuring a stable performance while achieving maximal charging. We further propose a fixed time window protocol that accelerates charging toward the continuously driven transverse-field limit. Spin-correlator analysis reveals that scrambling and light-cone spreading govern charging performance. The protocols remain compatible with diverse platforms, underscoring their scalability and practical feasibility.
