Abstract

We consider the underdamped Brownian dynamics of particles in a symmetric periodic potential by taking into account systematic quantum corrections order by order and show that a very slow asymmetric and periodic modulation with zero temporal average can induce directed quantum transport in the limit , where ωs≫γ≫1/τ, ωs,γ and t are the system frequency, the dissipation constant and the time period of the modulation, respectively.
