Artificial Brownian motors: Controlling transport on the nanoscale

P Hänggi, F Marchesoni - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2009 - APS
In systems possessing spatial or dynamical symmetry breaking, Brownian motion combined
with unbiased external input signals, deterministic and random alike, can assist directed …

Tunable transport with broken space–time symmetries

S Denisov, S Flach, P Hänggi - Physics Reports, 2014 - Elsevier
Transport properties of particles and waves in spatially periodic structures that are driven by
external time-dependent forces manifestly depend on the space–time symmetries of the …

Analog of a quantum heat engine using a single-spin qubit

K Ono, SN Shevchenko, T Mori, S Moriyama, F Nori - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
A quantum two-level system with periodically modulated energy splitting could provide a
minimal universal quantum heat machine. We present the experimental realization and the …

Brownian motors

P Hänggi, F Marchesoni, F Nori - Annalen der Physik, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
In systems possessing a spatial or dynamical symmetry breaking, thermal Brownian motion
combined with unbiased, non‐equilibrium noise gives rise to a channelling of chance that …

Brownian motors: Current fluctuations and rectification efficiency

L Machura, M Kostur, P Talkner, J Łuczka… - Physical Review E …, 2004 - APS
With this work, we investigate an often neglected aspect of Brownian motor transport,
namely, the role of fluctuations of the noise-induced current and its consequences for the …

Rectification currents in two-dimensional artificial channels

F Marchesoni, S Savel'ev - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2009 - APS
Driven transport of noninteracting Brownian particles in two-dimensional asymmetric

Analysis of a Brownian heat engine with ecological criteria

E Açıkkalp - The European Physical Journal Plus, 2016 - Springer
The purpose of this study is to investigate the Brownian heat engine with thermo-ecological
function (ECF) and ecological coefficient of performance (ECOP). Potential and kinetic heat …

Nonlinear vibrational resonance

S Ghosh, DS Ray - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2013 - APS
We examine the nonlinear response of a bistable system driven by a high-frequency force to
a low-frequency weak field. It is shown that the rapidly varying temporal oscillation breaks …

Single-file diffusion on a periodic substrate

A Taloni, F Marchesoni - Physical review letters, 2006 - APS
An assembly of “nonpassing” particles diffusing on a one-dimensional periodic substrate is
shown to undergo single-file diffusion for both noiseless (ballistic) and stochastic dynamics …

Anticipated synchronization in coupled inertial ratchets with time-delayed feedback: a numerical study

M Kostur, P Hänggi, P Talkner, JL Mateos - Physical Review E—Statistical …, 2005 - APS
We investigate anticipated synchronization between two periodically driven deterministic,
dissipative inertial ratchets that are able to exhibit directed transport with a finite velocity. The …
