Induced current in quantum and classical ratchets

In a previous work, we described transport in a classical, externally driven, overdamped ratchet. A transport current arises under two possible conditions: either by increasing the external driving or by adding an optimal amount of noise when the system operates below threshold. In this work, we stu...
