In article number 2002827, Yang Wang, Momoji Kubo, and co‐workers succeed to propose a non‐empirical wear law for nanoscale contact and then validate its robustness and applicability by atomistic simulations. This proposed wear law unveils why the nanoscale wear behaviors do not generally obey the description by conventional macroscale wear law, leading to the development of design principles for nanoscale antiwear tribosystems.
