Superlubricity of Graphene/C60/Graphene Interface - Experiment and Simulation

We investigated the nano-scale superlubricity or ultralow friction appeared at the graphene/C60/graphene interface, where the (mean) lateral force becomes nearly zero within the atomic resolution of the frictional force microscopy (FFM). The C60 intercalated graphite film is one of the most successf...
