摘要
Previous studies have emphasized that the adhesion strength between solid objects tends to increase as the characteristic size of the objects decreases and eventually saturates at the theoretical adhesion strength below a critical size scale. Here we show that the adhesion strength between two spheres or between a sphere and a solid half-space actually exhibits a peak value at an optimal size. This optimal size arises owing to a transition between surface- and bulk-dominated interaction regimes at the nanoscale.
