Abstract In the past few years, attention has mainly been focused on the symmetric Brownian motor (BM) with Gaussian noises, whose current and energy conversion efficiency are very low. Here, we investigate the operating performance of the symmetric BM subjected to Lévy noise. Through numerical simulations, it is found that the operating performance of the motor can be greatly improved in asymmetric Lévy noise. Without any load, the Lévy noises with smaller stable indexes can let the motor give rise to a much greater current. With a load, the energy conversion efficiency of the motor can be enhanced by adjusting the stable indexes of the Lévy noises with symmetry breaking. The results of this research are of great significance for opening up BM's intrinsic physical mechanism and promoting the development of nanotechnology.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
