Abstract
The surface freezing effect of n-alkane has been studied by Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy. Samples used in the experiment were n-C50H102 (pentacontane) 2500Å thick films evaporated on Cu substrate. An ordered structure has been observed at a 1.3°C higher temperature than the bulk melting point. Angle resolved measurement has revealed that the molecular long axis of pentacontane in the surface freezing layer is almost perpendicular to the surface.
