Deformation- and rupture-controlled friction between PDMS and a nanometer-scale SiO x single-asperity

Abstract This work investigates the friction between polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and silicon oxide (SiOx) in single asperity sliding contact by atomic force microscopy (AFM). Two friction dependences on the normal force are identified: a tensile regime and a compressive regime of normal forces. In t...
