Sexual reproduction in higher plants relies upon the polarised growth of pollen tubes. The growth-site at the pollen tube tip responds to signalling processes to successfully steer the tube to an ovule. Essential features of pollen tube growth are po...

Ratchet dynamics of large polarons in asymmetric diatomic molecular chains (2010)
Journal Article
Brizhik, L., Eremko, A., Piette, B., & Zakrzewski, W. (2010). Ratchet dynamics of large polarons in asymmetric diatomic molecular chains. Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 22(15), Article 155105. https://doi.org/10.1088/0953-8984/22/15/155105

We study the dynamics of large polarons in diatomic molecular chains, at zero temperature, under the influence of an external, periodic in time, electric field of zero mean value. We show that in asymmetric chains, i.e. chains with two different atom... Read More about Ratchet dynamics of large polarons in asymmetric diatomic molecular chains.

Ratchet effect of Davydov's solitons in nonlinear low-dimensional nanosystems. (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Brizhik, L., Eremko, A., Piette, B., & Zakrzewski, W. (2010, January). Ratchet effect of Davydov's solitons in nonlinear low-dimensional nanosystems. Presented at Molecular Self-Organization in Micro-, Nano-, and Macro-Dimensions: From Molecules to Water, to Nanoparticles, DNA and Proteins”, Kiev

We study the ratchet behavior of polarons in diatomic molecular chains under the influence of an external electromagnetic field which is periodic in time. We show that in asymmetric chains a harmonic unbiased field causes a drift of polarons. This ph... Read More about Ratchet effect of Davydov's solitons in nonlinear low-dimensional nanosystems..
