摘要

Since Adam and Gibbs, structural relaxation near the glass transition is visualized in terms of a correlated motion of polymer segments or domains, giving rise to dynamic heterogeneities. While the time scale of dynamic heterogeneities can be directly inferred from scattering experiments, the size of the cooperatively rearranging regions (typically 1-3 nm) is generally not directly obtainable and involves model assumptions. In particular, the long awaited temperature-resolved description of the cooperation length is expected to provide vital microscopic information towards the ongoing mystery of the glass transition. An unambiguous evaluation of this small length scale warrants a direct, spatially nanoscopic investigation of the glass forming dynamics, avoiding the averaging effects associated with conventional ensemble measurements. Here, we introduce a truly model-independent spatial investigation of the molecular cooperativity of polystyrene near its glass transition. Our intermolecular friction analysis yields a cooperation length that increases from the monomer scale (0.4 nm) to 37 nm clusters, when cooling from 30 K above the glass transition. The thermal sensitivity of the cooperativity follows a power-law relationship based on critical temperatures that deviate from interpretations of macroscopic experiments, bringing our nanoscopic findings more congruent with mode coupling theories.
