We modified polymer surfaces with an inductively coupled plasma system to introduce polar functional groups. The immobility parameters of plasma modified surfaces were obtained by measuring contact angles as a function of storage time in air. Due to highly restricted chain mobility in the crystalline region, the crystallinity can be estimated by the fraction of immobile polar groups remaining after chain reorientation.}, number={15}, journal={POLYMER}, author={Hyun, J}, year={2001}, month={Jul}, pages={6473–6477} } @article{hyun_aspnes_cuomo_2001, title={Nondestructive measurement of a glass transition temperature at spin-cast semicrystalline polymer surfaces}, volume={34}, ISSN={["0024-9297"]}, DOI={10.1021/ma0012797}, abstractNote={ADVERTISEMENT RETURN TO ISSUECommunication to the...Communication to the EditorNEXTNondestructive Measurement of a Glass Transition Temperature at Spin-Cast Semicrystalline Polymer SurfacesJ.

To prevent reorientation from the surface to the bulk, appropriate crosslinking is necessary among the polymer chains. In this work, an Ar+ ion beam was used to provide crosslinking to the surface. Crosslinking was shown by spectroscopic ellipsometry, AFM, and FTIR. Contact angle measurements were performed to see the aging of the modified surfaces. The surface modified with Ar+ ion beam followed by RF plasma treatment exhibited reduced chain mobility and a highly stable hydrophilic surface. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Because they are dense, highly crosslinked, and chemically stable, diamond-like carbon (DLC) films and silicon oxide films (SiOx) were deposited on poly(ethylene terephthalate) by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition to restrict polymer surface dynamics. In this study, the effects of ultrathin films on surface dynamics of these polymers were investigated. The layers were deposited on substrates with thickness below 100 Å. The thickness of films was measured with a scanning analyzer ellipsometer, while ATR-IR spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy were performed to observe the chemical structure of the films. Films below 50 Å were also shown to be effective in stabilizing the plasma treated polymer surfaces. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
