Abstract: We present an experimental realization of an information-driven Brownian motor by periodically cooling a Brownian particle trapped in a harmonic potential connected to a single heat bath, where cooling is carried out by the information… read more here.

Abstract: The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy never decreases for isolated macroscopical systems, which defines the arrow of time. For small systems, although the entropy increases on average, due to strong fluctuation, it… read more here.
