Dimensional coupling-induced current reversal in two-dimensional driven lattices

Abstract: We show that the direction of directed particle transport in a two-dimensional ac-driven lattice can be dynamically reversed by changing the structure of the lattice in the direction perpendicular to the applied driving force. These structural changes introduce dimensional coupling effects, the strength of which governs the timescale of the current reversals. The underlying mechanism is based on the fact that dimensional coupling allows the particles to explore regions of phase space which are inaccessible oth… Show more

“…where p j can represent the normalized relative distribution (normalized by the total number of atoms) of atoms on sites, but it cannot characterize the diffusion of system [42]. In statistics and probability theory, the standard deviation is a good measure for the variation or dispersion of an average.…”

“…Indeed, most of the existing schemes to generate current reversals focus on reverting the direction of asymptotic particle transport due to a change of system parameter [47][48][49][50]. Only recently, research has focused on setups where the current reversal occurs dynamically in time either due to a time-dependent switching of system parameters or due to the presence of interactions and dimensional coupling [33,38,51,52].…”

“…In order to study the related transport phenomena, researchers proposed some typical ratchet models corresponding to the type of nonequilibrium driving, they are rocking ratchets [5,6], flashing ratchets [7][8][9], coupled ratchets [10,11], entropic ratchets [12][13][14]. In addition, directed transport can also be realized by using static and dynamic force fields, such as the coupling of conservative and nonconservative forces [15], the transversal ac force [16,17], the superimposed driven lattices [18,19], and the optical ratchet with a rocking driving [20].…”
