A review on mechanics and mechanical properties of 2D materials—Graphene and beyond
Deji Akinwande,Christopher J. Brennan,J. Scott Bunch,Philip Egberts,Jonathan R. Felts,Huajian Gao,Rui Huang,Joon-Seok Kim,Teng Li,Yao Li,Kenneth M. Liechti,Nanshu Lu,Harold S. Park,Evan J. Reed,Peng Wang,Boris I. Yakobson,Teng Zhang,Yong-Wei Zhang,Yao Zhou,Yong Zhu +19 more
TL;DR: A review of recent theoretical and experimental works related to mechanics and mechanical properties of 2D materials can be found in this article, where the authors show that there is a continual growth of interest in the mechanics of other two-dimensional materials beyond graphene.

Journal ArticleDOI
Frictional behavior of atomically thin sheets: hexagonal-shaped graphene islands grown on copper by chemical vapor deposition.
TL;DR: Graphene substantially lowers the friction force experienced by the sliding asperity of a silicon AFM tip compared to the surrounding oxidized copper surface, showing that friction force microscopy serves as a facile, high contrast probe for identifying the presence of graphene on Cu.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of Atomic Stick-Slip Friction Examined with Atomic Force Microscopy and Atomistic Simulations at Overlapping Speeds
TL;DR: Experimental data unambiguously reveal a stick-slip friction plateau above a critical scanning speed, in agreement with the thermally activated Prandtl-Tomlinson (PTT) model, but friction in experiments is larger than in simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental dependence of atomic-scale friction at graphite surface steps
TL;DR: This paper showed that the presence of a small amount of water increases friction at atomic steps, but does not strongly influence friction on flat terraces, and that the friction between a nanoscale tip and atomically stepped surfaces of graphite is influenced by the environment.
