Abstract£ºBased on the classically elastic theory and the Lennardª²Jones potential law£¬ the elastic model of adhesive contact is established to investigate such problems as adhesion£¬contact and deformation in microª²mechanical systems£¬and the variations with the gap between two spheres of the adhesive force£¬ deformation and contact radius are obtained£® The results indicate that the adhesive attraction prior to the contact of two spheres has engendered the obvious bulge£¬and they enter into contact as the distance gets 1.5 times the balanceable gap of the atoms£® When the two spheres contact£¬the sphere profiles and the adhesive force transit smoothly between the inner and outer contact regions£¬which reveals that there exists no obvious critical contact radius£®It is concluded that the rigid model of adhesive contact enables accurately to describe the adhesive force of two spheres only when the distance is beyond 5 times the balanceable gap of the atoms via analyzing the variation of the adhesive force with the distance£®
