Thesis defense of Henning Moldenhauer
Zoom This thesis focuses on advancing the knowledge on fundamental structural and physicalchemical processes in the contact of relative moving surfaces using Raman spectroscopy. With this advancement, [...] a step towards monitoring wear and friction in real-time applications is performed. In this thesis, Raman scattering signatures are correlated with their spatial distribution at worn metallic surfaces [...] MoSx inter-layer spacing, strain-relaxation and a basal reorientation process are investigated. The thesis closes with a chapter on tribofilm formation in steel-steel contacts, where nano-sized hematite, …
