Areas of Interest
Jacqueline Krim heads the Nanoscale
Tribology Laboratory located in Partners III on Centennial Campus. Jacqueline Krim's research interests include solid-film
growth processes and topologies at submicron length scales, nanotribology (the study of friction, wear, and lubrication
at nanometer length and time scales) and liquid-film wetting phenomena.
