Abstract :
High-density hard disk drives (HDDs) require a very low flying height, less than 10 nm. In this paper, based on the investigation of the molecular conformation and spreading characteristics, we clarify the diffusive motion of mobile molecules in order to build a tribological model for a monolayer lubricant.
