Journal ArticleDOI
Liquid to solidlike transitions of molecularly thin films under shear
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the shear forces between two molecularly smooth solid surfaces separated by thin films of various organic liquids and investigated the transition from continuum to molecular behavior in very thin films.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic Properties of Molecularly Thin Liquid Films
TL;DR: Results show that two molecularly smooth surfaces, when close together in simple liquids, slide (shear) past each other while separated by a discrete number of molecular layers, and that the frictional force is "quantized" with the number of layers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fundamental experimental studies in tribology : the transition from interfacial friction of undamaged molecularly smooth surfaces to normal friction with wear
TL;DR: In this paper, a new experimental technique is described for simultaneous measurements of both the normal load and the transverse (frictional) forces between two molecularly smooth surfaces, their exact molecular contact area, their surface profile during sliding, and the distance between the two surfaces (to ± 1 A ).
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurements of and Relation Between the Adhesion and Friction of Two Surfaces Separated by Molecularly Thin Liquid Films
TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique is described for sliding two molecularly smooth surfaces laterally past each other in liquids while monitoring their exact contact area, the normal and transverse forces, and the surface separation.

TL;DR: In this article, a method of forming a discrete track recording pattern on a soft magnetic underlayer of a perpendicular magnetic recording disk is presented, where the underlayer is continuous throughout the recording pattern.
