Brownian motor with time-delayed feedback.
An inertial Brownian motor with time-delayed feedback driven by an unbiased time-periodic force is investigated. It is found that the mean velocity and the rectification efficiency are decreased when the noise intensity is increased. While the shape of the mean velocity and the rectification efficiency can be changed from one peak to two peaks when the time delay is increased, the symmetry in the velocity probability distribution function is broken when the delay time is increased.
