Description
Stable glasses formed through physical vapour deposition exhibit high surface mobility, allowing for their characteristic efficient packing. In thin films of stable polymer glasses, properties of the surface, such as the roughness and elastic modulus, differ as a function of stability and film thickness. In this work, we investigate the surface properties of varying stable polystyrene glasses using atomic force microscopy and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy techniques.
