Frictional Asymmetry and Wear Pattern Formation by Slip and Cleavage Detected at Directional r{1 0 -1 4} Face of Calcite (CaCO3)

Frictional force was measured on directional calcite (1 0 -1 4) surface, where triangular carbonate ions are all tilted to [4 2 -1] direction. With the normal load < 49 mN, observed frictional asymmetry, +[4 2 -1] > -[4 2 -1], was the same as that measured in nm-scale. In the higher...
