Stripe and bubble ratchets on asymmetric substrates

We show that various nonmonotonic ratchet effects can arise when mesophase pattern-forming systems, which exhibit anisotropic crystal, stripe, and bubble regimes, are coupled to one-dimensional asymmetric substrates under ac driving. The patterns emerge in the absence of a substrate when the ratio o...
