潤滑條件下金剛石薄膜及石墨金剛石復(fù)合薄膜的摩擦學(xué)性能摘要：

本文研究了在潤滑條件下金剛石薄膜及石墨-金剛石復(fù)合薄膜的摩擦學(xué)性能。通過實驗對比納米壓痕實驗結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)，相較于金剛石薄膜，石墨-金剛石復(fù)合薄膜具有更低的摩擦系數(shù)和更高的耐磨性。進一步分析表明，潤滑條件下的石墨-金剛石復(fù)合薄膜的頂部石墨層可以提供更好的潤滑效果，從而降低了摩擦系數(shù)并提高了機械性能。研究結(jié)果對于優(yōu)化薄膜潤滑和設(shè)計高性能摩擦材料具有一定的指導(dǎo)意義。

Introduction:

Diamond-likecarbon(DLC)filmsandgraphite-diamondcomposite(GDC)filmsarewidelyusedinvariousapplications,includingbiomedicalimplantsandmechanicaldevices.Oneofthemainchallengesofthesefilmsistoimprovetheirfrictionandwearperformance.Underlubricatedconditions,thetopgraphitelayerinGDCfilmsmayprovidebetterlubrication,leadingtoimprovedtribologicalproperties.Therefore,itisimportanttostudythetribologicalpropertiesofGDCfilmsandDLCfilmsunderlubricatedconditions.
