  • Abstract
    Transporting velocity of a loaded Brownian motor with entropic barrier is investigated in the presence of an asymmetric unbiased force. It is found that in the presence of the entropic barrier, the stall force of the Brownian motor does not change monotonously with temperature. The average velocity of the Brownian motor is a peaked function of thermal noise and amplitude of the asymmetric unbiased external force, which indicates that a definite fluctuation can facilitate the loaded Brownian motor moving. With the increase of the load, the range of temperature and amplitude of the asymmetric unbiased external force for Brownian motor working become smaller. The limited area for Brownian motor working is given on the load-temperature plane. The threshold of fluctuation for Brownian motor working is found, and the minimum of asymmetric parameter of unbiased external force for Brownian motor working is given.
