Effect of anomalous diffusion on directed motion in a multiplicative noise driven flashing ratchet system

In this paper we have studied the directed motion of a Brownian particle in a multiplicative noise driven flashing ratchet system. Our investigation shows the current (j) is either maximum or minimum in the super-diffusion (SPD) region depending on the asymmetric character of the ratchet potential. But the optimum behavior disappears for the symmetric ratchet potential and there is a current inversion around the normal diffusion (ND). With increase of half cycle period(t_p/2) (which controls the on-off operation mechanism of the potential), j passes through a maximum and the peak height is the highest for the SPD. Also at low asymmetry in the system, the mobility is more dominating for the normal and the super-diffusion cases than the sub-diffusion. For large asymmetry in the ratchet potential, the diffusion control positive current is larger for the ND compared to the other cases. Finally, we observe that there is a maximum in the variation of current as a function of noise correlation time for SPD. But it disappears for the other cases.     

Rectification Efficiency of Two Harmonically Coupled Particles

Transportation properties of two harmonically coupled particles moving in a flashing or rocking ratchet potential are investigated in terms of Langevin simulation. The efficiency for rectification of non-equilibrium fluctuation is calculated by using a new definition. The results show that both the average current and efficiency of two coupled particles in the flashing ratchet are larger than that of a single particle and these quantities are non-monotonous functions of the potential remaining time.     

Theory of slightly fluctuating ratchets

We consider a Brownian particle moving in a slightly fluctuating potential. Using the perturbation theory on small potential fluctuations, we derive a general analytical expression for the average particle velocity valid for both flashing and rocking ratchets with arbitrary, stochastic or deterministic, time dependence of potential energy fluctuations. The result is determined by the Green’s function for diffusion in the time-independent part of the potential and by the features of correlations in the fluctuating part of the potential. The generality of the result allows describing complex ratchet systems with competing characteristic times; these systems are exemplified by the model of a Brownian photomotor with relaxation processes of finite duration.     

脉冲式棘齿势场作用下囚禁离子的规则与混沌运动

Experimental control of transport and current reversals in a deterministic optical rocking ratchet

We present an experimental demonstration of a deterministic optical rocking ratchet. A periodic and asymmetric light pattern is created to interact with dielectric microparticles in water, giving rise to a ratchet potential. The sample is moved with respect to the pattern with an unbiased time-periodic rocking function, which tilts the potential in alternating opposite directions. We obtain a current of particles whose direction can be controlled in real time and show that particles of different sizes may experience opposite currents. Moreover, we observed current reversals as a function of the magnitude and period of the rocking force.     

Numerical Integration of a Non-Markovian Langevin Equation with a Thermal Band-Passing Noise

An accurate and fast approach for numerically solving a non-Markovian Langevin equation with a thermal band-passing noise is proposed. The algorithm combines the closed integration for both damping and noise terms with the Runge–Kutta method for nonlinear force in the Markovian Langevin equation transferred from the original equation. The present algorithm is tested through simulating diffusion of a free particle by using different initial distributions, and then a strong superdiffusion is shown. The mean velocity of a particle in a flashing ratchet driven by the band-passing colored noise is calculated numerically. The dependence of the resulting mean velocity on temperature, asymmetry of the ratchet potential, and inertia of the particle is discussed, and some novel behaviors in comparison with the usual model are observed.     

Collective dynamics of two-dimensional coupled Brownian motors

The transport properties of coupled Brownian particles in a two-dimensional rocking ratchet are investigated via Langevin simulation. The results show that the average center-of-mass velocity is multi-peaks function of the frequency of the driving force. Furthermore, in the 2D coupled Brownian motor system there are the collective effect and ratchet behavior, which can switch depending on the frequency of driving force. It turns out that the cooperative effect between the interaction of coupled particles and external rocking driving force facilitates collective directional motion and energy conversion.
