Fig. 3: Interfacial friction and slip length versus temperature.

From: Anomalous friction of supercooled glycerol on mica

Fig. 3

All measurements are done in a single experimental run for various temperatures, with the same tip and on the same mica surface. a Slip length b versus temperature with linear (inset) and log scales (main panel). Error bars correspond to 3 nm. b Resulting interfacial friction coefficient, defined as λ(T) = η(T)/b(T), versus temperature λ(T). We also give the liquid’s α-relaxation frequency, fα(T) on the top x-axis. Error bars correspond to a 3 nm error on the slip length. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
