contents This study presents an analysis of a quantum mechanical formulation of the Carnot like cycle using diatomic molecules, i.e., the Morse oscillator, as the working substance. The generalized model with an arbitrary one dimensional potential is used to obtain the important performance parameters such as the efficiency, the power output, and the optimal region of the engine by considering well width L moving with a finite speed. The optimal efficiency, the maximum power output, and dimensionless power ranges of the working substance was also determined. The results obtained in this work are found to agree with those obtained for similar engine but with different working substance.
