Rectification of plasma-powered active matter into macroscopic work
Ting-yu Yao, Shuo Wang, Shao-peng Li +3
Plasmas sustain strong energy and momentum flux, yet this activity is typically treated as a dissipative loss channel rather than a usable resource, and its conversion into macrosc…

Separation of bi-dispersed microspheres in dusty plasma ratchet experiments
Ting-yu Yao, Ji-xu Gao, Miao Tian +4
It is demonstrated experimentally that the effective separation of bi-dispersed microspheres (dust particles) in the underdamped and strongly-coupled regime is realized using a des…

Experimental realization of a dusty plasma rocking ratchet with current reversal
Shun-xin Zhang, Shuo Wang, Ting-yu Yao +3
A single dust particle confined in an asymmetric ratchet potential is periodically driven by two oppositely directed laser beams, forming an underdamped dusty plasma rocking ratche…
