摘要

Using Langevin simulations, we investigate the depinning dynamics of two-dimensional charged colloids on a random laser-optical substrate. With an increase in the strength of the substrate, we find a transition from crystal to smectic flows above the depinning. A power-law scaling relationship between average velocity and applied driving force could be obtained for both flows, and we find that the scaling exponents are no bigger than 1 for the crystal and are bigger than 1 for the smectic flows.
