Influences of out-of-plane elastic energy and thermal effects on friction between graphene layers

Through molecular dynamic simulations, a system for investigating the contributions of elastic deformation energy and thermal activation effects to friction has been constructed. In this system, a graphene flake slides on a suspended graphene layer anchored on a bed of springs. The “graphene–spring”...
