原子摩擦的非单调速度依赖性

Non-monotonic velocity dependence of atomic friction

Enzo Granato, S. C. Ying

摘要:

我们研究的原子力显微镜的尖端的摩擦力的速度依赖性,因为它被拖过一个表面,考虑到记忆效应和热波动。记忆效应描述的耦合的尖端的低频激发模式的表面除了耦合到周期性的负电位。我们发现,当激励模式的频率是可比的特征频率对应的运动的尖端在表面上,摩擦力的速度依赖性是非单调的,显示的速度范围内的摩擦力可以随着速度的增加而减少。这些结果为解释最近的实验提供了理论支持,这些实验发现在覆盖有单层的表面上摩擦力随着速度而减小。

英文摘要:

We study the velocity dependence of the frictional force of the tip of an atomic force microscope as it is dragged across a surface, taking into account memory effects and thermal fluctuations. Memory effects are described by a coupling of the tip to low frequency excitation modes of the surface in addition to the coupling to the periodic corrugation potential. We find that when the excitation mode frequency is comparable to the characteristic frequency corresponding to the motion of the tip across the surface, the velocity dependence of the frictional force is non monotonic, displaying a velocity range where the frictional force can decrease with increasing velocity. These results provide theoretical support for the interpretation of recent experiments which find a frictional force that decreases with velocity on surfaces covered with a monolayer.
