Abstract
We investigate the dynamic properties of Brownian interacting particles subject to a two-dimensional periodic potential. By employing the Langevin dynamics simulation, we calculate the collective diffusion coefficient in different situations corresponding to different densities. On the other hand, our numerical studies show that the collective diffusion coefficient depends not only on the shape of adsorbed potential but also on the coupling between particles.
