摘要: The nano-friction phenomenon in a one-dimensional Frenkel-Kontorova (FK) model under Gaussian colored noise is investigated by using the molecular dynamic simulation method. The role of colored noise is analyzed through the inclusion of a stochastic force via a Langevin molecular dynamics method. Via the stochastic Runge-Kutta algorithm, the relationship between different parameter values of the Gaussian colored noise (the noise intensity and the correlation time) and the nano-friction phenomena such as hysteresis, the maximum static friction force is separately studied here. Similar results are obtained from the two geometrically opposed ideal cases: incommensurate and commensurate interfaces. It was found that the noise strongly influences the hysteresis and maximum static friction force and with an appropriate external driving force, the introduction of noise can accelerate the motion of the system, making the atoms escape from the substrate potential well more easily. Interestingly, suitable correlation time and noise intensity give rise to super-lubricity. It is noteworthy that the difference between the two circumstances lies in the fact that the effect of the noise is much stronger on triggering the motion of the FK model for the commensurate interface than that for the incommensurate interface.
