Nanotribology of anti-friction coatings in MEMS

With 1/3 of a monolayer of water between the SAMs and the substrate, there is little effect on either the shear stress or μ, as shown in Figure 8. This is true for both the hydrocarbon and the fluorocarbon SAMs, and is likely because this small amount of water remains tightly bound to hydroxyl group...

Description
Summary:With 1/3 of a monolayer of water between the SAMs and the substrate, there is little effect on either the shear stress or μ, as shown in Figure 8. This is true for both the hydrocarbon and the fluorocarbon SAMs, and is likely because this small amount of water remains tightly bound to hydroxyl groups on the substrate and does not interfere with the substrate-SAMs interaction. When the water is increased to a full monolayer, however, the effect is strong.
