Phase shift induces currents in a periodic tube
Bao-quan Ai, Liang-gang Liu
The average current of an overdamped Brownian particle moving along the axis of a three-dimensional periodic tube is investigated in the presence of a symmetric potential and a tem…
Brownian pump in nonlinear diffusive media
Bao-quan Ai, Liang-gang Liu
A Brownian pump in nonlinear diffusive media is investigated in the presence of an unbiased external force. The pumping system is embedded in a finite region and bounded by two par…
A channel Brownian pump powered by an unbiased external force
Bao-quan Ai, Liang-gang Liu
A Brownian pump of particles in an asymmetric finite tube is investigated in the presence of an unbiased external force. The pumping system is bounded by two particle reservoirs. I…
Thermal noise can facilitate energy transformation in the presence of entropic barriers
Bao-quan Ai, Hui-zhang Xie, Liang-gang Liu
Efficiency of a Brownian particle moving along the axis of a three-dimensional asymmetric periodic channel is investigated in the presence of a symmetric unbiased force and a load.…
Current in a three-dimensional periodic tube with unbiased forces
Bao-quan Ai, Liang-gang Liu
Transport of a Brownian particle moving along the axis of a three-dimensional asymmetric periodic tube is investigated in the presence of asymmetric unbiased forces. The reduction…
Facilitated movement of inertial Brownian motors driven by a load under an asymmetric potential
Bao-quan Ai, Liang-gang Liu
Based on recent work [L. Machura, M. Kostur, P. Talkner, J. Luczka, and P. Hanggi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 040601 (2007)], we extend the study of inertial Brownian motors to the case…
