Stochastic ratchets

Autors: 
Nikitin Aleksandr Pavlovich, P.N. Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Abstract: 

In the present paper the problems of nonlinear Brownian motion in «stochastic ratchets», namely, the systems with asymmetric spatially periodic potential were considered in application to molecular biology, radiophysics and nanotechnology.
