Zusammenfassung:A layered structure for forming charging terminals for high power applications. In some embodiments, the layered structure may include a substrate and a contact layer disposed over at least a portion of the substrate. The substrate may have a conductivity greater than 40% International Annealed Copper Standard (IACS). The contact layer may demonstrate a coefficient of friction of less than 1.4, such as from 0.1 to 1.4, as measured in accordance with American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) G99-17. The contact layer may include a precious-metal-based alloy, such as a silver-samarium alloy.
