The emergence of superconductivity and correlated insulators in magic-angle twisted bilayer
graphene (MATBG) has raised the intriguing possibility that its pairing mechanism is distinct …

Tribology, which studies surfaces in contact and relative motion, includes friction, wear, and
lubrication, straddling across different fields: mechanical engineering, materials science …

Vacuum tunneling of spin-polarized electrons from a ferromagnetic CrO 2 tip into a Cr (001)
single crystal has been observed by means of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) …

Studies of the fundamental origins of friction have progressed rapidly in recent years,
yielding valuable information on the relative contributions of electronic, magnetic …

We experimentally verify the existence of two model-type magnetic ground states that were
previously predicted but so far unobserved. We find them in Mn monolayers on the Re …

The pervasive phenomenon of friction has been studied at the nanoscale via a controlled
manipulation of single atoms and molecules with a metallic tip, which enabled a precise …

Atomic manipulation using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) tip enables the
construction of quantum structures on an atom-by-atom basis, as well as the investigation of …

Friction is a familiar phenomenon to humankind and has long been studied; however, it is
fundamentally difficult to understand because of the complex processes that contribute to it …

Friction forces, which arise when two bodies that are in contact are moved with respect to
one another, are ubiquitous phenomena. Although various measurement tools have been …

Copper, permalloy, cobalt, and silicon are the materials that have been widely utilised in
magnetic devices. When the size of interest is down to the nanoscale, the inter-diffusion …
