Journal ArticleDOI

Frictional duality observed during nanoparticle sliding.

TL;DR: While some particles show finite friction increasing linearly with the interface areas of up to 310 000 nm(2), other particles assume a state of frictionless sliding, suggesting a link between the degree of surface contamination and the occurrence of this duality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temperature dependence of atomic-scale stick-slip friction.

TL;DR: Experiments of atomic stick-slip friction on graphite as an explicit function of surface temperature between 100 and 300 K under ultrahigh vacuum conditions reveal agreement with the thermally activated Prandtl-Tomlinson model at all temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scaling laws of structural lubricity.

TL;DR: Mesoscopic friction is measured by measuring the sliding resistance of amorphous antimony and crystalline gold nanoparticles on crystalline graphite to link mesoscopic friction to atomic principles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multibond dynamics of nanoscale friction: the role of temperature.

TL;DR: These experiments reveal a nonmonotonic enhancement of dry nanoscale friction at cryogenic temperatures for different material classes and Concerted simulations show that it emerges from two competing processes acting at the interface: the thermally activated formation as well as rupturing of an ensemble of atomic contacts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoribbons with Nonalternant Topology from Fusion of Polyazulene: Carbon Allotropes beyond Graphene.

TL;DR: By using on-surface synthesis, nanoribbons of the non-alternant graphene allotropes, phagraphene and tetra-penta-hepta(TPH)-graphene have been obtained by dehydrogenative C-C coupling of 2,6-polyazulene chains.
