Torque and Twist against Superlubricity [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2008 Superlubricity between incommensurate surfaces provides a desired low-friction state essential for the function of small-scale machines. Here we demonstrate experimentally and theoretically that superlubricity in contacts lubricated by lamellar solids might be eliminated due to torque-induced reorientation coupled to lateral motion.

Superlubricity of graphene nanoribbons on gold surfaces [PDF]
Science, 2016 A golden opportunity for graphene Reducing friction can limit wear and improve the energy efficiency of mechanical devices. Graphene is a promising lubricant because the friction between sheets is minuscule under certain circumstances. Kawai et al.

Shear-Induced Emergence of Aromatic Superlow-Friction Interfaces in Amorphous Carbon: Triggering Chemical Impurities and Atomic-Scale Mechanisms. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)High‐throughput quantum‐mechanical simulations reveal that amorphous carbon undergoes shear‐driven structural transformation into aromatic, graphene‐like interfaces. This mechanochemical process is governed by dopant chemistry: dopants with valency less than four promote the emergence of superlow‐friction amorphous graphene, whereas tetra‐valent ...

Origins of Graphite Resistivity: Decoupling Stacking Fault and Rotational Misorientation. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Interfacial dislocations critically influence interlayer transport in van der Waals (vdW) materials, yet quantifying their individual contributions remains challenging. We measure graphite's c‐axis resistivity and develop a decoupling strategy, revealing a resistivity ratio of ∼4507:74:1 for rotational misorientations, stacking faults, and AB stacking,
