Temperature Activates Contact Aging in Silica Nanocontacts
Understanding the time evolution of contact strength in silica nanocontacts is of great fundamental and practical relevance in diverse areas like earthquake dynamics, wafer bonding mechanisms, as well as MEMS applications. The logarithmic increase of contact strength with hold time, termed contact a...
