Overcoming friction and steps towards superlubricity: A review of underlying mechanisms
Applied Surface Science Advances, 2021 Herein, we present a topical review of the advances and the mechanisms involved in achieving superlubricity - the regime of friction in which the coefficient of friction (COF) is less than 0.01. In light of the race towards achieving superlubricity on an

Macroscale Superlubricity Achieved With Various Liquid Molecules: A Review
Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2019 Superlubricity is generally classified as solid superlubricity and liquid superlubricity according to the lubricants involved at the interfaces, and is a popular research topic in tribology, which is closely linked to energy dissipation.

Superlubricity mechanism of diamond-like carbon with glycerol. Coupling of experimental and simulation studies [PDF]
, 2007 We report a unique tribological system that produces superlubricity under boundary lubrication conditions with extremely little wear. This system is a thin coating of hydrogen-free amorphous Diamond-Like-Carbon (denoted as ta-C) at 353 K in a ta-C/ta-C ...

Superlubricity in Layered Nanostructures [PDF]
, 2014 Interaction between two surfaces in relative motion can give rise to energy dissipation and hence sliding friction. A significant portion of the energy is dissipated through the creation of non-equilibrium phonons. Recent advances in material synthesis have made the production of specific single layer honeycomb structures and their multilayer phases ...
