Robust microscale superlubricity under high contact pressure enabled by graphene-coated microsphere
Superlubricity can be unstable in graphene systems, especially under high applied loads. Here the authors use microspheres uniformly coated by graphene to measure friction between 2D materials and show that superlow friction is preserved for long periods of time under high loads and various atmosphe...
