Transport phenomena in spatially periodic systems far from thermal equilibrium are
considered. The main emphasis is put on directed transport in so-called Brownian motors …

In systems possessing spatial or dynamical symmetry breaking, Brownian motion combined
with unbiased external input signals, deterministic and random alike, can assist directed …

We present an improved and enlarged version of our book Nonlinear-namics of Chaotic and
Stochastic Systems published by Springer in 2002. Basically, the new edition of the book …

In this review we focus on electronic transport through semiconductor nanostructures which
are driven by ac fields. Along the review we describe the available experimental information …

We fabricated a device that controls the motion of flux quanta in a niobium superconducting
film grown on an array of nanoscale triangular pinning potentials. The controllable …

A serious obstacle impeding the application of low-and high-temperature superconductor
devices is the presence of trapped magnetic flux,: flux lines or vortices can be induced by …

We address the problem of the classical deterministic dynamics of a particle in a periodic
asymmetric potential of the ratchet type. We take into account the inertial term in order to …

We investigate quantum Brownian motion in adiabatically rocked ratchet systems. Above a
crossover temperature T c tunneling events are rare, yet they already substantially enhance …

The theoretical and experimental results concerning the thermodynamical and low-
frequency transport properties of hybrid structures, consisting of spatially separated …

Josephson diodes are superconducting elements that show an asymmetry in the critical
current depending on the direction of the current. Here, we theoretically explore how an …
