Brillouin Light Scattering Determination of the Glass Transition in Thin, Freely-Standing Poly(styrene) Films

Abstract

We have used Brillouin light scattering (BLS) to measure the glass transition temperature of thin, freely-standing poly(styrene) (PS) films. The freely-standing films were prepared by spincoating solutions of PS in toluene onto glass substrates, annealing the supported films in vacuum, and then using a water surface transfer technique to place the films across a 3 mm diameter orifice. Ellipsometry measurements of similar floated films …
