Abstract
In this paper, diffusion behavior of Brownian particles moving in a 1D periodic potential landscape has been theoretically investigated by using the general quantum Langevin equation. At first, in the condition of weak disorder, some anomalous diffusive behaviors have been revealed in the process. Then, two types of mean square displacement, ensemble averaged and time averaged mean square displacement, have been investigated in a long time, and the weak ergodicity breaking phenomenon has been revealed. It is shown that the general quantum Langevin equation can exhibit some novel details of the experimental diffusion process.
