Rectification and non-Gaussian diffusion in heterogeneous media
Paolo Malgaretti, Ignacio Pagonabarraga Miguel J. Rubi
We show that when Brownian motion takes place in a heterogeneous medium, the presence of local forces and transport coefficients leads to deviations from a Gaussian probability dis…
Conditions for the generation of spin currents in spin-Hall devices
Jean-Eric Wegrowe, Robert Benda, J. Miguel Rubì
We investigate the out-of-equilibrium stationary states of spin-Hall devices on the basis of the least dissipation principle. We show that, for a bulk paramagnet with spin-orbit in…
Lateral-drag Casimir forces induced by anisotropy
Igor S. Nefedov, J. Miguel Rubi
We predict the existence of lateral drag forces near the flat surface of an absorbing slab of an anisotropic material. The forces originate from the fluctuations of the electromagn…
