Molecular Dynamics in Thin Polymer Films

  • Chapter
Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy

Abstract

The structural and dynamic properties of thin supported and freely standing polymer films are in the focus of scientific discussion [1–4]. Up to now, broadband dielectric spectroscopy has turned out to be a convenient experimental access which enables one to measure directly the molecular fluctuations of polar moieties in these systems in an extraordinary broad frequency and temperature range. A further benefit results from the fact that its sensitivity increases with decreasing sample thickness and hence with decreasing amount of sample material.
