Friction-Lead Confined Interface Catalysis for 2D Material Growth for Superlubricity of a-C: H films

By Bin Zhang and Qian Jia

Superlubricity specifically refers to the phenomenon where friction vanishes, and experimentally, the state where the coefficient of friction approaches zero is termed superlubricity. This revolutionary technology implies near-zero friction and near-zero wear. Addressing the challenge of achieving superlubricity over sub-millimeter scales with two-dimensional materials, the authors propose a novel approach of in situ growth of two-dimensional materials at the friction interface to achieve superlubricity. Based on this, they introduce for the first time the concept of friction-induced interface-confined catalytic generation of two-dimensional materials to realize superlubricity. This book briefly introduces noble metals/hydrogenated amorphous carbon, molybdenum disulfide/hydrogenated amorphous carbon, ammonium thiomolybdate/hydrogenated amorphous carbon, and other multilayer structures based on this concept, achieving in situ growth of two-dimensional materials at the friction interface and superlubricity on steel surfaces from various perspectives.
