Investigation of structural lubricity on platinum nanoparticles under ambient conditions
(Bilkent University, 2017-05)Structural lubricity describes a state of ultra-low friction involving relative motion between atomically flat and molecularly clean surfaces with incommensurate structures. While the occurrence of structural lubricity was ... -
Structure and nanotribology of thermally deposited gold nanoparticles on graphite
(Bilkent University, 2015)Forming a complete understanding of the physical mechanisms that govern friction on the nanometer and atomic scales is an ongoing endeavor for scientists from various disciplines. While atomic force microscopy (AFM) has ...
