Broad-band dielectric spectroscopy (–
) is employed to
study the molecular dynamics of three low-molecular-weight glass-forming
H-bonded liquids being confined in (dielectrically inactive) porous glasses
with pore sizes of 2.5 nm, 5.0 nm and 7.5 nm. From the relaxation time
distribution of the dielectric spectra, a three-layer model is deduced,
consisting of molecules having solid-like, interfacial and bulk-like
dynamics, respectively.
The quantitative analysis of the different contributions shows
that the bulk-like fraction scales with the pore size, the interfacial
and solid-like layers remaining relatively unchanged.
Our results restrict the possible existence of cooperatively rearranging
clusters in the system below nanometer scale.
