English abstract:
Technological devices such as pressure sensors,
gyroscopes and accelerometers get smaller and smaller. This
increases the necessity for the fundamental understanding of
tribological phenomena at the micro- and nanometer scale.
Biological systems excel also at this scale.
The thesaurus that nature has developed during the last
millions of years of evolution comprises self-cleaning surfaces,
systems with friction coefficients smaller than any occurring in
man-made systems and organisms that produce macromolecules
with ice binding properties. Such systems with well adapted
biotribological properties shall serve as inspiration for innovation
in micro- and nanotechnology.
