Stick–slip behaviour on Au(111) with adsorption of copper and sulfate

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2015
Several transitions in the friction coefficient with increasing load are found on Au(111) in sulfuric acid electrolyte containing Cu ions when a monolayer (or submonolayer) of Cu is adsorbed.

Ionic liquid adsorption and nanotribology at the silica-oil interface: hundred-fold dilution in oil lubricates as effectively as the pure ionic liquid

open access: yes, 2014
The remarkable physical properties of ionic liquids (ILs) make them potentially excellent lubricants. One of the challenges for using ILs as lubricants is their high cost.

A multiscale tribological study of nacre : Evidence of wear nanomechanisms controlled by the frictional dissipated power [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Sheet nacre is a hybrid biocomposite with a multiscale structure, including nanograins of CaCO3 (97% wt.% – 40 nm in size) and two organic matrices: (i) the “interlamellar” mainly composed of β-chitin and proteins, and (ii) the “intracrystalline” mainly ...
