Abstract
In this letter we employ null ellipsometry on Langmuir Blodgett multilayers of a glass forming photosensitive side chain polymer to investigate both the structural changes and the related time relaxation as a function of temperature and sample thickness following isothermal optical perturbation. Below a thickness of a few layers the glassy multilayer system collapses to a smecticlike crystal. This effect is discussed in the context of the glass transition in restricted dimensionality.
