Nanoscale Liquid Crystal Lubrication Controlled by Surface Structure and Film Composition
Pritam Kumar Jana, Wei Chen, Mikko J. Alava +1
Liquid crystals have emerged as potential candidates for next-generation lubricants due to their tendency to exhibit long-range ordering. Here, we construct a full atomistic model…

Stick-Slip Control in Nanoscale Boundary Lubrication by Surface Wettability
Wei Chen, Adam S. Foster, Mikko J. Alava +1
We study the effect of atomic scale surface-lubricant interactions on nanoscale boundary-lubricated friction, by considering two example surfaces - hydrophilic mica and hydrophobic…
