Negative differential friction predicted in a 2D GaInS3 homojunction with multiple sliding pathways
Derived by exploring the essence of friction from a microscopic perspective, the theory of negative differential friction involves an abnormal negative friction coefficient μ, which provides a way to research friction and has attracted much attention in recent years. Here, first-principles calculations are used to predict that negative μ as measured by the slope of corrugation in the sliding potential-energy barrier subject to an external load can be achieved when bilayer GaInS3 in commensurate contact slides relatively along the b-direction. Such remarkable observations can be attributed to the competition and alternating dominance of the van der Waals attraction regime and the electronic repulsion regime between the layers caused by variation of interlayer distance during pressurization. In addition, the transfer and redistribution of interlayer charges enhance the S–In and S–Ga ionic bonds of the maximum-energy configuration, further lowering the potential-energy corrugation and causing negative differential friction. This study not only identifies a material exhibiting a negative friction coefficient during relative sliding across multiple configurations but also uncovers the physical mechanism behind this phenomenon. These findings offer fresh theoretical insights and practical possibilities for addressing friction-related challenges.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
