Dynamics near free surfaces and the glass transition in thin polymer films: a view to the future
The past 20 years have seen a substantial effort to understand dynamics and the glass
transition in thin polymer films. In this Perspective, we consider developments in this field …

A direct quantitative measure of surface mobility in a glassy polymer
Thin polymer films have striking dynamical properties that differ from their bulk counterparts.
With the simple geometry of a stepped polymer film on a substrate, we probe mobility above …
