Abstract
The surface molecular orientation of pentacontane (n-CH3(CH2)(48)CH3) film evaporated on Cu substrate was studied with NEXAFS (Near Edge X-r ay Absorption Fine Structure) spectroscopy at various The surface mole cular orientation of the film was found to be changed by raising tempe rature from room temperature to just below the bulk melting point and the pre-transitional ordered structure at the surface of the liquid ph ase was observed even above the bulk melting point.
