Macroscale Superlubricity on Nanoscale Graphene Moiré Structure‐Assembled Surface via Counterface Hydrogen Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 19, May 22, 2024.
By sphere‐triggered strain engineering, the graphene moiré structure (GMS)‐assembled surfaces are formed. The superlubricity between GMS‐assembled and DLC25 surfaces in wide ranges of normal load (7–11 N), sliding velocity (0.5–27 cm s−1), contact area (0.4×104–3.7×104 µm2), and contact pressure (0.19–1.82 GPa) can be achieved based on assembly face ...

Graphene Nanoflakes: Superlubricity of Graphite Induced by Multiple Transferred Graphene Nanoflakes (Adv. Sci. 3/2018) [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced science, 2018
Superlubricity between graphite and silica is achieved under ambient conditions, induced by the formation of multiple transferred graphene nanoflakes (GNFs) on a silica surface. As reported by Jinjin Li and co‐workers in article number 1700616, the friction coefficient could be reduced to 0.0003 at a maximal local contact pressure of 700 MPa because of

Casimir‐Lifshitz Optical Resonators: A New Platform for Exploring Physics at the Nanoscale

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, Volume 3, Issue 2, February 2024.
Levitation, or trapping, of a flat mirror at a certain distance above another flat reflecting surface, as a result of the compensation of attractive gravitational forces by a quantum fluctuation induced repulsive force, leads to the formation of Casimir‐Lifshitz optical resonators, which have opened the possibility to explore a wide range of physical ...

Diffusion equation for spreading and replenishment in submonolayer lubricant film

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
In magnetic hard disk drives, it is important to evaluate head wear durability in relation to lubricant layer because the head-disk spacing has to be reduced to ~1nm to achieve a high density recording above 1 Tb/in2.
