By cleaving mica atomically flat surfaces of 50,000 or more atoms (sq cm) can be prepared and these surfaces are part of the modern studies on friction. This rather new science, called nanotribology, will gradually input our existing engineering and modify present friction sensitive systems.

When two smooth surfaces rub together there is very little friction. ... There is less friction when there is a liquid (e.g. oil) between the two surfaces. ... There is more friction if the two surfaces are forced against each other.

Why study the friction of rocks? Many crustal earthquakes are caused by the sudden movement on preexisting faults. Therefore, an understanding of the friction between rock surfaces is important for understanding earthquake mechanisms.

This paper presents the results of adhesion and friction studies on a nano-textured surface. The nano-textures were produced by spin coating colloidal silica nanoparticle solution on a flat silicon substrate.
