Abstract

Broadband dielectric spectroscopy (10−2 Hz – 109 Hz) is employed to study the molecular dynamics of the glassforming liquid salol (phenyl salicylate) being contained in (dielectric inactive) porous glasses with pore sizes of about 2.5 nm, 5.0 nm and 7.5 nm. Besides the bulk relaxation (I) of salol, two further dielectric loss processes are observed due to the geometrical constraint of the inner surfaces of the pores: the “interfacial relaxation” (II) and a Maxwell-Wagner polarization (III). The “interfacial relaxation” is assigned to the restricted dynamics of the molecules close to the inner surface of the pores. It shows a strong pore-size dependence for pores < 5 nm both in relaxation rate and dielectric strength.
