Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We use nanohole relaxation to study the surface relaxation of films of glassy isotactic poly (methyl methacrylate) (i-PMMA) films. These measurements allow us to obtain the time dependent relaxation function at a number of different sample temperatures for the first 2-3 nm of the free surface in a system often used as a model system for the effect of the substrate on thin film dynamics. The surface is observed to relax at temperatures up to 42 K below the bulk Tg value, even on systems where the thin film Tg is known to be greater than the bulk value. We are able to determine the range over which the substrate directly affects the free surface relaxation, and determine a surprisingly large (Mw independent) limiting thickness of approximately 180 nm where the free surface relaxation is not affected by the substrate. For thick films (h>200 nm) we find an unexpected linear Mw dependence of the near surface relaxation time.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
