The mobility of unstirred molecularly thin perfluoropolyether liquid film Zdol, in contact with amorphous carbon surfaces, is investigated via surface capture (or bonding) kinetics. A transition in the Zdol film mobility from a solid-like to a liquid-like behavior is observed as a function of configuration entropy and temperature. The surface capture kinetics of the molecularly thin Zdol films is then compared to convectively well-stirred bulk Zdol on the same carbon surfaces. In both cases, non-classical surface capture dynamics characterized by a time-dependent rate coefficient is observed. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
