Friction-induced reconstruction of sliding interface and low friction mechanism of WC/a-C films

Friction-induced reconstruction of sliding interface and low friction mechanism of WC/a-C films

Tungsten carbide reinforced amorphous carbon (WC/a-C) films exhibit significantly lower coefficient of friction (COF) than typical a-C films in the atmospheric environment; thus, they are promising candidates for use as solid lubricants. However, the low friction mechanism of WC/a-C films remains po...
