Tribological behaviors of hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) films under single asperity contact are investigated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Hydrogen concentration and normal load are found to play essential roles in the frictional behavior of a-C:H films. With low hydrogen concentration, the a-C:H film shows high adhesion and friction even at very low normal loads (1.75 nN). The sp3-to-sp2 rehybridization is observed in the a-C:H films with all studied hydrogen concentrations, which is greatly enhanced with increasing normal load. At high normal loads, formation of nanocrystalline graphene-like lamellar structures is observed locally, usually beneath the instantaneous contact area, acting as a lubricating agent, demonstrating local graphitization due to combined effects of the compression and shear process. With high hydrogen concentration, the friction shows a linear increase along with the normal load and higher load bearing capability. Hydrogen atoms accumulate on the film surface duri...
