Strongly Temperature Dependent Sliding Friction for a Superconducting Interface
J. B. Sokoloff, M. S. Tomassone, A. Widom
A sudden drop in mechanical friction, between an adsorbed nitrogen monolayer and a lead substrate, occurs when the lead passes through the superconducting transition temperature. W…

Effects of Defects on Friction for a Xe Film Sliding on Ag(111)
M. S. Tomassone, J. B. Sokoloff
The effects of a step defect and a random array of point defects (such as vacancies or substitutional impurities) on the force of friction acting on a xenon monolayer film as it sl…

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Friction in Xenon Films on a Silver Substrate
M. S. Tomassone, J. B. Sokoloff, A. Widon +1
We perform molecular dynamics simulations of friction for atomically thin Xe films sliding on Ag(111). We determine the inverse of the coefficient of friction (i.e. slip time) by d…
