“…FFM employs a sharp probe tip, typically a cantilever with a sharp tip, which is scanned across the surface of the sample of interest. As the tip interacts with the sample, the lateral force or friction between the tip and the surface is measured [57]. By analyzing the lateral force signal, researchers can extract information about the frictional properties, such as the friction coefficient, adhesion, and surface interactions, at the nanoscale.…”

“…Nanoscale friction is influenced by various factors, including atomic-level interactions, surface roughness, adhesion, and lubrication effects. In contrast, macroscale friction is primarily influenced by factors such as the normal force, surface roughness, and the nature of the sliding materials [56][57][58]. However, both nanoscale and macroscale friction measurements provide valuable insights into the fundamental understanding of friction and play a crucial role in the development of advanced materials, coatings, and lubricants for various applications.…”
