Abstract
In this Perspective, we present the recent advances in atomic friction measured of two-dimensional materials obtained by friction force microscopy. Starting with the atomic-scale stick-slip behavior, a beautiful highly nonequilibrium process, we discuss the main factors that contribute to determine sliding friction between single asperity and a two-dimensional sheet including chemical identity of material, thickness, external load, sliding direction, velocity/temperature, and contact size. In particular, we focus on the latest progress of the more complex friction behavior of moiré systems involving 2D layered materials. The underlying mechanisms of these frictional characteristics observed during the sliding process by theoretical and computational studies are also discussed. Finally, a discussion and outlook on the perspective of this field are provided.

Abstract
In numerous developing countries, the lower cost of subsidized liquid fuels such as kerosene compared to market-rate fuels often results in fuel adulteration. Such misuse of kerosene is hard to detect with conventional detection technologies because they are either time consuming, expensive, not sensitive enough or require well-equipped analytical laboratories. In this work, we developed an inexpensive and easy-to-use device for rapid and onsite detection of fuel adulteration. The working principle of our fuel adulteration detection is sensing changes in the mobility of fuel droplets on non-textured (i.e., smooth) and non-polar solid surfaces. Using our device, we demonstrated rapid detection of diesel (market-rate fuel) adulterated with kerosene (subsidized fuel) at concentrations an order of magnitude below typical adulteration concentrations. We envision that our inexpensive, easy-to-use, and field-deployable device as well as the design strategy will pave the way for novel fuel quality sensors.

Abstract
The morphology involving the height difference and the surface roughness of the binary monolayers of saturated fatty acids were evaluated using atomic force microscopy (AFM) to investigate the mixing behavior of their monolayers. AFM observations revealed that the mixed monolayers of (palmitic acid/arachidic acid) and (arachidic acid/lignoceric acid), which had four methylene group differences between fatty acids, were in a molecularly mixed state. Further, the mixed monolayer of (stearic acid/lignoceric acid), which had six methylene group differences, was in a phase-separated state. From the results of the present and previous studies, it became clear that the difference in the cohesive energy between fatty acids, which corresponds to the enthalpy difference, was an important factor in determining whether the molecular aggregation state of a fatty acid mixed monolayer was in a molecularly mixed or phase-separated state. Moreover, the boundary value of cohesive energy difference was approximately 2.5 kJ mol-1 at a subphase temperature of 293 K.

Abstract
Directional liquid transport (DLT), especially that proceeding on a conical fiber (DLT-CF), is an important mass-transfer process widely used both by natural organisms and in practical applications. However, on-site switching of the DLT-CF remains a challenge due to the nontunable driving force imparted by the structural gradient, which greatly limits its application. Here, unprecedently, a facile electrochemical strategy is developed for reaching the on-site switchable DLT-CF, featuring in situ control and fast response. Depending on the poised electric potential, the droplet can either move directionally or be pinned at any position for a tunable duration time, exhibiting completely different moving characteristics from the traditional DLT-CF with no control. It is proposed that the surface hysteresis resistance, closely related to both the surface hydrogen-bonding network and the droplet topology on the fiber, can be largely altered electrochemically. The tunable hysteresis resistance works synergistically with the conical-structure-induced Laplace pressure to on-site tune the forces acting on the droplet, leading to various controllable DLTs-CF, including those with tunable distance and direction, array manipulation, and assembly line processing of droplets. The strategy is applicable for versatile liquids, offering a general approach for controllable liquid transport in fibrous systems.

Abstract
Mixed monolayer films comprising hydrogenated and fluorinated surfactants can undergo phase separation to produce interfaces with diverse structures at the micrometer and nanometer scales. This review discusses our progress over the past decade to probe the relationship that exists between the molecular structure of the surfactants that comprise the films and the overall patterns formed in the monolayers. We review two main classes of mixed perfluorocarbon-hydrocarbon surfactant systems, including fatty acids and a recently developed family of EDTA-based gemini surfactants. In addition to summarizing the state-of-the-art of this field, the key scientific questions and relationships that require further elucidation are discussed, along with directions for continuing research into this fascinating area of research.

Abstract
Molecular mechanisms of adhesion and friction include the rupture of single and multiple bonds. The strength of adhesion and friction thus depends on the molecular kinetics and cooperative effects in the lifetime of bonds under stress. We measured the rate dependence of friction and adhesion mediated by supramolecular guest-host bonds using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The tip of the AFM and the surface were functionalized with cyclodextrin hosts. The influence of molecular kinetics on adhesion and friction was studied using three different ditopic guest molecules that connected the AFM tip and the surface. Adamantane, ferrocene, and azobenzene were the guest end groups of the connector molecules that formed inclusion complexes with the cyclodextrin hosts. The results confirm the importance of the molecular off-rate and of cooperative effects for the strength of adhesion and friction. Positive cooperativity also shapes the dependence of friction on the concentration of connector molecules, which follows the Hill-Langmuir model. Based on the Hill coefficient of 3.6, reflecting a characteristic rupture of at least 3-4 parallel bonds, a rescaling of the pulling rate is suggested that shifts the rate dependence of adhesion and friction for the three different molecules towards one master curve.

Abstract
Molecules aggregate to form a structure through various interactions involving dispersion force, electrostatic force, and so on. In two-dimensional systems, a surface energetic effect is further important for the molecular aggregation structure. We show that the domain size and its morphology in the mixed monomolecular film composed of hydrocarbon and fluorocarbon skeletons with different surface free energies extremely change depending on pH and NaCl concentration in the subphase. Such morphological changes can be interpreted by the balance of dipole density and line tension, which help in the development of an understanding of phase separation phenomena and provide a novel technique for structural control in two dimensions.

Abstract
Cellulose derivate phase separation in thin films was applied to generate patterned films with distinct surface morphology. Patterned polymer thin films are utilized in electronics, optics, and biotechnology but films based on bio-polymers are scarce. Film formation, roughness, wetting, and patterning are often investigated when it comes to characterization of the films. Frictional properties, on the other hand, have not been studied extensively. We extend the fundamental understanding of spin coated complex cellulose blend films via revealing their surface friction using Friction Force Microscopy (FFM). Two cellulose derivatives were transformed into two-phase blend films with one phase comprising trimethyl silyl cellulose (TMSC) regenerated to cellulose with hydroxyl groups exposed to the film surface. Adjusting the volume fraction of the spin coating solution resulted in variation of the surface fraction with the other, hydroxypropylcellulose stearate (HPCE) phase. The film morphology confirmed lateral and vertical separation and was translated into effective surface fraction. Phase separation as well as regeneration contributed to the surface morphology resulting in roughness variation of the blend films from 1.1 to 19.8 nm depending on the film composition. Friction analysis was successfully established, and then revealed that the friction coefficient of the films could be tuned and the blend films exhibited lowered friction force coefficient compared to the single-component films. Protein affinity of the films was investigated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and depended mainly on the surface free energy (SFE) while no direct correlation with roughness or friction was found. BSA adsorption on film formed with 1:1 spinning solution volume ratio was an outlier and exhibited unexpected minimum in adsorption.

Abstract
Compact self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of perfluorododecyl iodide (I-PFC12) of reproducible thickness (1.2 nm) are shown to form on silicon wafers. The SAMs have a high fluorine content (95%) and convey an extremely low surface energy to the silicon wafers (4.3 mN m-1), lower than previously reported in the literature for perfluorinated monolayers, and stable for over eight weeks. Shorter chain iodo-perfluorinated (I-PFC8) or bromo-perfluorinated molecules (Br-PFC10) led to less dense layers. The monolayers are stable to heating up to 60 °C, with some loss up to 150 °C. The I-PFC12 monolayer increases the work function of silicon wafers from 3.6 V to 4.4 eV, a factor that could be gainfully used in photovoltaic applications. The I-PFC12 monolayers can be transferred into patterns onto silica substrates by micro-contact printing. The NMR data and the reproducible thickness point to an upright halogen bonding interaction between the iodine in I-PFC12 and the surface oxygen on the native silica layer.

Abstract
Graphene structural defects, namely edges, step-edges, and wrinkles, are susceptible to severe mechanical deformation and stresses under tribo-mechanical operations. Applied forces may cause deformation by folding, buckling, bending, and tearing of these defective sites of graphene, which lead to a remarkable decline in normal and friction load bearing capacity. In this work, we experimentally quantified the maximum sustainable normal and friction forces, corresponding to the damage thresholds of the different investigated defects as well as their pull-out (adhesion) forces. Horizontal wrinkles (with respect to the basal plane, i.e., folded) sustained the highest normal load, up to 317 nN, during sliding, whereas for vertical (i.e., standing) wrinkles, step-edges, and edges, the load bearing capacities are up to 113, 74, and 63 nN, respectively. The related deformation mechanisms were also experimentally investigated by varying the normal load up to the initiation of the damage from the defects and extended with the numerical results from molecular dynamics and finite element method simulations.

Abstract
Friction is the oldest branch of non-equilibrium condensed matter physics and, at the same time, the least established at the fundamental level. A full understanding and control of friction is increasingly recognized to involve all relevant size and time scales. We review here some recent advances on the research focusing of nano- and mesoscale tribology phenomena. These advances are currently pursued in a multifaceted approach starting from the fundamental atomic-scale friction and mechanical control of specific single-asperity combinations, e.g., nanoclusters on layered materials, then scaling up to the meso/microscale of extended, occasionally lubricated, interfaces and driven trapped optical systems, and eventually up to the macroscale. Currently, this "hot" research field is leading to new technological advances in the area of engineering and materials science.

Abstract
The mutual immiscibility of hydrogenated and fluorinated surfactants at interfaces frequently leads to phase-separation, which provides a useful and flexible method for patterning air-water and solid-air interfaces. In this article, we review recent advances in the use of hydrogenated-fluorinated surfactant mixtures to achieve interfacial patterning. For even relatively simple systems comprised of binary mixed monolayers of hydrogenated and perfluorinated fatty acids, a diverse range of film morphologies can be generated at the air-water interface and successfully transferred onto solid substrates. Systematic investigations reported over the past several years have allowed for correlation between the chemical structure of the film constituents with the gross film morphology and underlying crystalline structure of the films. Early thermodynamic models based on the interplay between dipole-dipole repulsion forces between charged headgroups balanced by line tension between phases that were formulated to describe phase-behavior in simple phospholipid monolayer systems have proven highly useful to describe morphologies for the immiscible surfactant blends. Beyond simple binary fatty acid mixtures, highly-structured films have also been reported in mixed phospholipid systems, which have found important application in controlling the physical, compositional and performance properties of lung surfactant mixtures, as well as in semifluorinated alkane monolayers which form unique, hemimicellar structures at both liquid and solid interfaces. We also describe advances in using these approaches to pattern photopolymerizable, luminescent surfactants, which have found extensive use in colorimetric and fluorometric sensing devices. The long-term outlook for this field, with an emphasis on potential applications and future research directions are discussed.

Abstract
The ability to manipulate interfaces at the nanoscale via a variety of thin-film technologies offers a plethora of avenues for advancing surface applications. These include surfaces with remarkable antibiofouling properties as well as those with tunable physical and electronic properties. Molecular self-assembly is one notably attractive method used to decorate and modify surfaces. Of particular interest to surface scientists has been the thiolate-gold system, which serves as a reliable method for generating model thin-film monolayers that transform the interfacial properties of gold surfaces. Despite widespread interest, efforts to tune the interfacial properties using mixed adsorbate systems have frequently led to phase-separated domains of molecules on the surface with random sizes and shapes depending on the structure and chemical composition of the adsorbates. This feature article highlights newly emerging methods for generating mixed thin-film interfaces, not only to enhance the aforementioned properties of organic thin films, but also to give rise to interfacial compositions never before observed in nature. An example would be the development of monolayers formed from bidentate adsorbates and other unique headgroup architectures that provide the surface bonding stability necessary to allow the assembly of interfaces that expose mixtures of chains that are fundamentally different in character (i.e., either phase-incompatible or structurally dissimilar), producing compositionally "conflicted" interfaces. By also exploring the prior efforts to produce such homogeneously blended interfaces, this feature article seeks to convey the relationships between the methods of film formation and the overall properties of the resulting interfaces.

Abstract
A novel method based on remotely controlled magnetic forces of bio-functionalized superparamagnetic colloids using micromagnet arrays was devised to measure frictional force at the sub-picoNewton (pN) scale for bio-nano-/micro-electromechanical system (bio-NEMS/MEMS) interfaces in liquid. The circumferential motion of the colloids with phase-locked angles around the periphery of the micromagnets under an in-plane rotating magnetic field was governed by a balance between tangential magnetic force and drag force, which consists of viscous and frictional forces. A model correlating the phase-locked angles of the steady colloid rotation was formulated and validated by measuring the angles under controlled magnetic forces. Hence, the frictional forces on the streptavidin/Teflon interface between the colloids and the micromagnet arrays were obtained using the magnetic forces at the phase-locked angles. The friction coefficient for the streptavidin/Teflon interface was estimated to be approximately 0.036 regardless of both vertical force in the range of a few hundred pN and velocity in the range of a few tenths of μm s(-1).

Abstract
The phase separation of immiscible surfactants in mixed monolayer films provides an approach to physically manipulate important properties of thin films, including surface morphology, microscale composition, and mechanical properties. In this work, we predict, based upon existing miscibility studies and their thermodynamic underpinnings described in the literature, the miscibility and film morphology of mixed monolayers comprised of behenic acid (C21H43COOH) and perfluorotetradecanoic acid (C13F27COOH) in various molar ratios. Predictions are tested using a combination of experimental surface characterization methods for probing miscibility and film morphology at the solid/air and air/water interfaces. Film components were immiscible and phase-separated into chemically well-defined domains under a variety of experimental conditions, with monolayer morphology consistent with initial predictions. The extensibility of these basic predictions to other systems is discussed in the context of using these works for different perfluorinated surfactant molecules.

Abstract
Factors influencing the chemical image formation by lateral force microscopy (LFM, or friction force microscopy, FFM) under normal ambient conditions were studied by applying LFM to patterned specimens of inorganic thin films deposited predominantly by atomic layer epitaxy. The patterned steps on SnO(2)/Si, CaS/Si, CeO(2)/Si, and Pt/Al(2)O(3) samples were formed by chemical etching or lift-off processing. The results of semiquantitative AFM and LFM studies were compared to the static contact angle studies using capillary force evaluation. The chemical contrast in LFM images of the patterned specimens was the highest in cases where silicon was present. This is in accordance with contact angle data, which showed much higher hydrophilicity on Si than on the other materials studied. Further experiments with a patterned SnO(2)/Si specimen indicated that chemical contrast can be significantly affected (i) by whether the surface was pretreated with ethanol, (ii) by the loading force (2-50 nN or 1-10 μN) applied, and (iii) by using SnO(2)-coated AFM probes instead of the conventional Si probes.

Abstract
Because of small surface area to volume ratios nanoscale devices can exhibit dominant surface forces that can quickly degrade unlubricated contacting surfaces. While fluorinated materials have been widely used as lubricants, because of their low critical surface tension and high thermal and mechanical stability, fluorinated monolayer coatings, which are suitable for lubricating nanoscale devices, are less effective as lubricants. Although fluorinated monolayers are more stable than their hydrocarbon counterparts against elevated temperature and humidity, they are known to exhibit higher frictional forces. To overcome this issue, here we study mixed monolayers composed of both hydrocarbon and fluorocarbon chains. Hydrocarbon-based monolayers have been widely studied and shown to improve frictional properties and device life. To investigate the frictional behavior of mixed fluorocarbon/hydrocarbon monolayers, molecular dynamics simulations of pure hydrogenated and fluorinated chains and mixed fluorinated/hydrogenated chains on silica surfaces have been performed. The adhesion and friction between the nanoconfined monolayers as a function of normal load, chain length, and chemical composition of the monolayer coating have been investigated, and mixed fluorocarbon/hydrocarbon monolayers found to outperform both pure fluorocarbon and pure hydrocarbon monolayers. Surface coverage was found to have a significant effect on the performance of all systems studied with higher surface coverage resulting in lower frictional forces. The simulations also show that when the hydrocarbon chains in the monolayer are longer than the fluorocarbon chains, a liquidlike layer is formed by the longer hydrocarbon chains that protrudes above the shorter fluorocarbon chains and aids in friction reduction. A frictional load dependence is also seen in these mixed monolayer systems because of repulsive interactions between the fluorocarbon base layer and the hydrocarbon liquidlike layer. A chain length difference of eight carbons between the base layer and the liquidlike layer was found to provide the lowest friction, while both a larger (because of increased entanglement) and a smaller (insufficient atoms between the contacting base layers to form a liquidlike layer) chain length difference increased friction.

Abstract
The metal oxide cluster α-AlW(11)O(39)(9-) (1), readily imaged by cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM), is used as a diagnostic protecting anion to investigate the self-assembly of alkanethiolate monolayers on electrostatically stabilized gold nanoparticles in water. Monolayers of 1 on 13.8 ± 0.9 nm diameter gold nanoparticles are displaced from the gold surface by mercaptoundecacarboxylate, HS(CH(2))(10)CO(2)(-) (11-MU). During this process, no aggregation is observed by UV-vis spectroscopy, and the intermediate ligand-shell organizations of 1 in cryo-TEM images indicate the presence of growing hydrophobic domains, or "islands", of alkanethiolates. UV-vis spectroscopic "titrations", based on changes in the surface plasmon resonance upon exchange of 1 by thiol, reveal that the 330 ± 30 molecules of 1 initially present on each gold nanoparticle are eventually replaced by 2800 ± 30 molecules of 11-MU. UV-vis kinetic data for 11-MU-monolayer formation reveal a slow phase, followed by rapid self-assembly. The Johnson, Mehl, Avrami, and Kolmogorov model gives an Avrami parameter of 2.9, indicating continuous nucleation and two-dimensional island growth. During nucleation, incoming 11-MU ligands irreversibly displace 1 from the Au-NP surface via an associative mechanism, with k(nucleation) = (6.1 ± 0.4) × 10(2) M(-1) s(-1), and 19 ± 8 nuclei, each comprised of ca. 8 alkanethiolates, appear on the gold-nanoparticle surface before rapid growth becomes kinetically dominant. Island growth is also first-order in [11-MU], and its larger rate constant, k(growth), (2.3 ± 0.2) × 10(4) M(-1) s(-1), is consistent with destabilization of molecules of 1 at the boundaries between the hydrophobic (alkanethiolate) and the electrostatically stabilized (inorganic) domains.

Abstract
We examined the phase-separated structures of the mixed Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of C(k)H(2k+1)COOH (HkA: k=17, 21) and C(m)F(2m+1)C(10)H(20)COOH (FmH10A: m=6, 8) fabricated isothermally or after isobaric thermal treatments. Under isothermal fabrication conditions, disks and wire-type domains formed in the H17A/F6H10A LB films at high and low fabrication temperatures, respectively, because the line tension and dipole-dipole interaction were comparable with each other. The thermodynamically stable phases of H21A/F6H10A LB films at high and low fabrication temperatures were disks and polygonal domains, respectively. Isobaric thermal treatments of the Langmuir films affected the domain size and not the domain shape when the transfer temperature was the same. Isobaric thermal treatments were effective in controlling the domain size. The thermodynamically stable phases of both H17A/F8H10A LB films and H21A/F8H10A LB films were nanowires in the range of the fabrication temperatures studied. Isobaric thermal treatments of the Langmuir films did not affect the domain shape significantly and affected the domain size in both the LB films studied. The change in the value m of FmH10A was more effective in controlling the phase-separated structures of the mixed LB films than the value of k of HkA.

Abstract
Nanografting is used to create spatial confinement, which enables regulation of self-assembly reaction pathways and outcome. The degree and outcome of this regulation is revealed using binary self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of organothiols and disulfides. In naturally grown systems, these SAMs have more complex morphology when compared with corresponding binary alkanethiol SAMs. Taller molecules form nanodomains of ellipsoidal cap in shape. These domains arrange in various irregular geometries, including 1D worm-like and 2D branches. This observation differs from binary alkanethiol SAMs, where nanodomains are separated and randomly dispersed. During nanografting, more homogeneous morphology was observed compared with naturally grown layers. By varying nanoshaving speed, the nanodomain structure can be regulated from randomly dispersed to more heterogeneous and, finally, to near natural growth. This trend is very similar to mixed alkanethiol systems, where the domain size and separation increase with increasing speed. Different from the alkanethiol systems, the observed structural variations are due to the changes in surface composition, in addition to domain size, shape, and arrangement.

Abstract
The study of molecular heterojunction morphology is often complicated by the presence of a topographically complex substrate. On such substrates, it is difficult to definitively assign a topographic feature to a specific component. We propose a technique, based on the separation of features in reciprocal space (Fourier subtraction), to deconvolute a heterojunction surface into two real space images. The technique has been successfully applied to three classes of systems: (1) where the overlayer features are smaller than those of the substrate, such as with small molecule growth on polymer substrates (DIP/PEDOT:PSS); (2) where the overlayer features are larger than the substrate, such as with a polymer film in contact with a corrugated metal surface (P3HT/Al), and (3) where both the overlayer and substrate features are of the same size. The Fourier subtraction method extends the study of morphology to heterojunctions with realistic substrates, where the complex topography may previously have prevented a basic description of the specific features of each component in a heterojunction film.

Abstract
Deposition of mixtures of palmitic acid (C15H31COOH) and perfluorooctadecanoic acid (C17F35COOH) onto solid substrates gives rise to irregularly shaped, phase-separated domains under a variety of deposition conditions. The morphology and chemical composition of these phase-separated domains have been investigated using a combination of surface pressure-area isotherms, atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoemission electron microscopy, and confocal fluorescence microscopy imaging. While domain morphology and composition in 2D phase-separated mixed monolayer systems can typically be rationalized in terms of an interplay between line tension and dipole-dipole repulsion effects, it was found that for this system additional kinetic factors, including domain growth rates and the rate of dissolution of the fatty acid component into the aqueous subphase, also play a major role in controlling film properties. The potential importance of these effects for the controlled patterning of solid substrates is discussed.

Abstract
Precise control of surface properties including electrical characteristics, wettability, and friction is a prerequisite for manufacturing modern organic electronic devices. The successful combination of bottom up approaches for aligning and orienting the molecules and top down techniques to structure the substrate on the nano- and micrometer scale allows the cost efficient fabrication and integration of future organic light emitting diodes and organic thin film transistors. One possibility for the top down patterning of a surface is to utilize different surface free energies or wetting properties of a functional group. Here, we used friction force microscopy (FFM) to reveal chemical patterns inscribed by a photolithographic process into a photosensitive surface layer. FFM allowed the simultaneous visualization of at least three different chemical surface terminations. The underlying mechanism is related to changes in the chemical interaction between probe and film surface.

Abstract
We report a versatile method to confine metal thin films in micro- and nanopatterns using directed self-assembly on the templates fabricated from phase-separated mixed Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films. The pattern of the mixed LB films can be tuned by adjusting intermolecular interaction between the film-forming molecules in the LB films and by varying the fabrication conditions of the films such as the mixing ratio, subphase temperature, and surface pressure. We use the patterned LB films for templates to confine metal in patterned regions, taking advantage of the difference between the surface free energy of the patterned regions and that of the self-assembled monolayer of the silane coupling agent. Au nanoparticles are confined onto the patterned films as a catalyst for the succeeding Cu electroless deposition. The atomic force microscopic images, Auger electron spectra, and scanning Auger electron maps of a Cu-deposited film show that Cu is selectively deposited on the patterns of phase separation of the original mixed LB films.
