Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) materials with a layered structure can realize extremely low
coefficient of friction (COF) at the nanoscale or microscale. However, the highly ordered …

Superlubricity is a terminology often used to describe a sliding regime in which the adhesion
leading to friction or resistance to sliding literally vanishes. For improved energy security …

Lubrication is highly relevant for the reliability and longevity of any moving machinery.
Machines are mainly lubricated by oils or greases but there are many conditions especially …
