摘要: We report results of glass transition (T(g)) measurements for polymer thin films using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The AFM mode, shear modulation (SMFM), involves measuring the temperature-dependent on a tip modulated parallel to sample surface. Using this method we have measured surface T(g) (17-500 nm) and found that is independent film thickness (t>17 nm), strength substrate interactions, or even presence substrate.
