Abstract
⺠A Ag nanodot-pattern was fabricated on a silicon wafer by a thermal dewetting process. ⺠The morphology of a nanodot-pattern could be varied by annealing temperature. ⺠A patterned surface had significantly lower friction compared to a smooth Ag film. ⺠Variation of friction coefficient coincided with the variation of adhesion force. ⺠Low frictional behavior of a patterned surface was due to a low Hertzian contact area.
