      abstract     = {We evaluate entropy production in a photovoltaic cell that
                      is modeled by four electronic levels resonantly coupled to
                      thermally populated field modes at different temperatures.
                      We use a formalism recently proposed, the so-called multiple
                      parallel worlds, to consistently address the nonlinearity of
                      entropy in terms of density matrix. Our result shows that
                      entropy production is the difference between two flows: a
                      semiclassical flow that linearly depends on occupational
                      probabilities, and another flow that depends nonlinearly on
                      quantum coherence and has no semiclassical analog. We show
                      that entropy production in the cells depends on
                      environmentally induced decoherence time and energy
                      detuning. We characterize regimes where reversal flow of
                      information takes place from a cold to hot bath.
                      Interestingly, we identify a lower bound on entropy
                      production, which sets limitations on the statistics of
                      dissipated heat in the cells.},
