Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) monolayers : morphology, nanostructure, adhesive and frictional properties

In this work polymer and other organic films deposited on silica substrates were studied. Special attention was given to adsorbed polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) monolayers. Scanning White Light Interferometry (SWLI) is shown to provide direct three-dimensional imaging of thin films with a thickness hig...
