摘要
Hopping motion of particles on linear chains under the influence of bias is considered where the transition rates represent arbitrary potentials. An exact expression for the stationary current is given and verified by numerical simulations. It exhibits rectification effects for nonsymmetric potentials in the regime of strong bias. Applications to two-and three-dimensional systems are indicated.
