Diffusion enhancement is a phenomenon in which the diffusion coefficient of a system is increased by an external force and it becomes larger than that of the force-free diffusion in thermal equilibrium. It is known that this phenomenon occurs for a Brownian particle in a periodic potential under a constant external force. Recently, it was found that diffusion enhancement also occurred in a biological molecular motor, whose moving part could move itself by switching the potentials generated by the other parts. It was shown that the diffusion coefficient exhibited peaks as a function of a constant external force. Here, we report the occurrence of an additional peak and investigate the condition governing its appearance.
