Direct measurement of molecular stiffness and damping in confined water layers
Steve Jeffery, Peter M. Hoffmann, John B. Pethica +3
We present {\em direct} and {\em linear} measurements of the normal stiffness and damping of a confined, few molecule thick water layer. The measurements were obtained by use of a…
