Ballistic thermophoresis of adsorbates on free-standing graphene
Emanuele Panizon, Roberto Guerra, Erio Tosatti
The textbook thermophoretic force which acts on a body in a fluid is proportional to the local temperature gradient. The same is expected to hold for the macroscopic drift behavior…
Graphene nanoribbons on gold: Understanding superlubricity and edge effects
Lorenzo Gigli, Nicola Manini, Andrea Benassi +3
We address the atomistic nature of the longitudinal static friction against sliding of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) deposited on gold, a system whose structural and mechanical prope…
Graphene on h-BN: to align or not to align?
Roberto Guerra, Merel van Wijk, Andrea Vanossi +2
The contact strength, adhesion and friction, between graphene and an incommensurate crystalline substrate such as {\it h}-BN depends on their relative alignment angle . The well…
