We study, within the spin-boson dynamics, the synchronization of a quantum
tunneling system with an external, time-periodic driving signal [1].
As a main result
we find that at a sufficiently large system-bath coupling strength
(i.e. for a friction strength α>1) the thermal noise plays a constructive
role in yielding forced synchronization.
This noise-induced synchronization can occur when
the driving frequency is larger than the zero-temperature tunneling rate.
As an application evidencing the effect, we consider the charge transfer
dynamics in molecular complexes.
