Physical vapor deposition can be used to prepare glasses with extraordinary properties. By optimizing the substrate temperature and deposition rate, glasses with low enthalpy, high density and high kinetic stability, as compared to the ordinary liquid-cooled glass, can be produced. The heat capacity of ‘stable glasses’ has been measured with conventional calorimetry, but such techniques are limited to bulk samples; the properties of more technologically relevant thin films cannot be measured. In this thesis, nanocalorimetry was utilized to measure the heat capacity of thin films of four organic glassformers: α,α,β-tris-naphthylbenzene (ααβ-TNB),cis- and trans-decahydronaphthalene (cis- and trans-decalin) and o-terphenyl. A number of new and important results came out of the AC nanocalorimetry experiments on these molecules. ααβ-TNB thin films showed thickness dependent transformation times for films up to one micron in thickness, consistent with the work on indomethacin. This result suggested that highly suppressed bulk transformation rates are a general feature associated with the kinetics of stable glass transformation. One way glassformers can be characterized is by their fragility, or their temperature dependent behavior as Tg is approached. Decalin, the molecular glassformer with the highest reported fragility, was shown to be capable of forming stable glasses when vapor-deposited. This result implies that surface mobility, which is deemed the controlling mechanism for stable glass formation, is also present in high fragility systems. Experiments on a variety of cis/trans-decalin mixture compositions showed that vapor deposition can also be used to make stable glasses of mixtures. The ability of an array of compositions to form stable glasses is a strong argument against nanocrystals being responsible for the extraordinary properties of stable glasses. Finally, in situ experiments on o-terphenyl were able to span the range of vapor-deposited glass behavior from low substrate temperature unstable glasses to high substrate temperature stable glasses.
