Relaxations in molecularly thin simple liquid films: Linear viscoelasticity and non-linear response to shear

To understand the relaxations of molecules under confinement, the linear and non-linear response of molecularly thin simple liquid films confined between two solid surfaces were studied. The method was to measure the resistance to applied oscillatory shear deformation as a function of frequency and amplitude of deformation, film thickness and normal pressure using the modified surface forces apparatus technique.
