Moiré-Pattern Evolution Couples Rotational and Translational Friction at Crystalline Interfaces
The sliding motion of objects is typically governed by their friction with the underlying surface. Compared to translational friction, however, rotational friction has received much less attention. Here, we experimentally and theoretically study the rotational depinning and orientational dynamics of...
