Nanotribology of Ionic Liquids: Transition to Yielding Response in Nanometric Confinement with Metallic Surfaces
Room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) are molten salts which exhibit unique physical and chemical properties, commonly harnessed for lubrication and energy applications. The pure ionic nature of RTIL leads to strong electrostatic interactions among the liquid, furthermore exalted in the presence of...
