Thermal-fluctuation gradient induced tangential entropic forces in layered two-dimensional materials

Recent studies on nanomechanical devices based on low-dimensional nanomaterials have revealed several different types of thermal fluctuation gradient induced tangential entropic forces (TEFs), including expulsion force, edge force, thermophoretic force, nanodurotaxis force, etc. While all these forc...
