[0033] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0034] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0035] As described in the background technology section, the current structural super-lubricity system has a single material and the size of the structural super-lubricity structure is relatively small, making it difficult to achieve large-scale structural super-lubricity.

[0036] In view of this, the present application provides a structural super-slip structure, please refer to Figure 1 ,include:

[0037] Super Slide 1;

[0038] A thin film layer 2 is in super-slip contact with the ultra-slip sheet 1, the ultra-slip sheet 1 slides on the thin film layer 2, and the thin film layer 2 is connected to the ultra-slip sheet 1 through van der Waals action. The thin film layer 2 includes a plurality of curved cross-linked shell-like bodies, and the curved convex points of the shell-like bodies face the ultra-slip sheet 1.

[0039] The film layer 2 may be a nanostructured carbon film.

[0040] The film layer 2 includes a plurality of curved cross-linked shells, so that the super-slip sheet 1 and the film layer 2 are connected through van der Waals interaction to form a super-slip structure with a van der Waals interface structure. Due to the presence of the curved cross-linked shells, the film layer 2 and the super-slip sheet 1 are in a natural edge-free contact state, thereby effectively reducing the friction caused by the edge effect and achieving structural super-slip.

[0041] The schematic diagram of the structure of the shell in the film layer 2 is as follows Figure 2 As shown, it is in a curved cross-linked shape. Each shell is curved, and the curved convex point of the shell refers to the point on the area where the shell is curved and arched. The height of the curved convex points of the shells in the same layer does not need to be consistent. The convex height of the shell should generally be less than 5nm, and the height difference between the highest points of the shell convex should be less than 2nm.

[0042] The sizes of the individual shells can be the same or different, and the film layer 2 is composed of multiple layers of curved cross-linked shells, which can overlap or stagger each other. The thickness of the film layer 2 can also be set as needed, for example, the thickness of the film layer 2 can be 30 to 50 nm, which is not specifically limited here.

[0043] The size of the superslipper 1 is generally 1 μm to 100 μm, and the size of a single shell is generally 5 to 20 nm. The size of the superslipper 1 is much larger than that of a single shell, and the superslipper 1 can cover multiple shells simultaneously when moving.

[0044] The surface structure of the film layer 2 has good uniformity, and any position can be matched with the super-slip sheet 1 to achieve super-slip structure.

[0045] The percentage content of hydrogen atoms in the thin film layer 2 is less than 5%, for example, the percentage content of hydrogen atoms may be 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1% and the like.

[0046] It should be noted that the type of the film layer 2 is not limited in the present application and can be selected at will.

[0047] As an implementation method, the structure of the film layer 2 is formed by embedding graphene into an amorphous carbon grid, wherein the size of the graphene is in the micrometer or nanometer order.

[0048] It should be pointed out that the type of the superslide 1 is not limited in this application, and it depends on the situation. The superslide 1 includes at least one of a two-dimensional conductor superslide, a two-dimensional semiconductor superslide, and a two-dimensional insulating superslide. Among them, the material of the two-dimensional conductor superslide includes but is not limited to graphite, graphene, niobium disulfide, and tantalum disulfide, the material of the two-dimensional semiconductor superslide includes but is not limited to molybdenum disulfide, tungsten diselenide, tungsten disulfide, and black phosphorus, and the material of the two-dimensional insulating superslide includes but is not limited to hexagonal boron nitride and mica.

[0049] In order to facilitate the transfer of the super-slippery sheet 1 onto the thin film layer 2 , the super-slippery structure may further include an island cover disposed on the surface of the super-slippery sheet 1 .

[0050] Taking the film layer 2 including graphene and amorphous carbon, and the superslip sheet 1 being a graphite superslip sheet as an example, the friction behavior of the superslip structure is tested using a nano friction tester. The friction force is 0.18 μN, the friction coefficient is as low as 0.003, and there is no wear. The friction characteristics of the graphite superslip sheet on the surface of the film layer 2 are as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the horizontal axis is the load and the vertical axis is the friction force. The graphite super-slippery sheet has excellent super-slip properties on the surface of the nanostructured carbon film layer in a high humidity environment.

[0051] The microstructure diagram of the graphite super-slip sheet 11 and the carbon film layer 21 including graphene and amorphous carbon is shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the graphite super-slip sheet 11 is located on the surface of the carbon film layer 21 in a non-edge contact state.

[0052] The Raman spectrum of the surface of the graphite superslip sheet in contact with the carbon film layer including graphene and amorphous carbon is shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the horizontal axis is the Raman frequency shift and the vertical axis is the intensity. Figure 5 It can be seen that the graphite super-slip sheet is at 1500cm -1 There is a strong peak at , indicating that the surface where the graphite super-slippery sheet contacts the carbon film layer is intact.

[0053] In this embodiment, the structural super-slip structure includes a super-slip sheet 1 and a thin film layer 2. The thin film layer 2 includes a curved cross-linked shell body, which can connect the thin film layer 2 and the super-slip sheet 1 through van der Waals interaction to achieve structural super-slip. The thin film layer 2 is a three-dimensional material, which realizes the expansion of structural super-slip from a single two-dimensional material to a three-dimensional system, and can also realize a large-sized structural super-slip structure.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 6Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment of the present application, the super-slip structure further includes:

[0057] The shape of the surface of the substrate 3 in contact with the film layer 2 includes but is not limited to a plane, a curved surface or any other irregular and complex surface.
