Standard and Bipolar Rectification in Tilted Periodically-Driven Quantum Systems

The research investigates how a time-periodic drive applied to a tilted potential can create directed transport even without external biases between coupled baths. It found that this drive induces currents enhanced at specific resonant frequencies where energy levels cross, leading to standard and bipolar rectification. This directional control is powerful and experimentally relevant for quantum circuits.
