Spectroscopic studies of short/long range ordering in polymers

The work presented in this thesis is divided into three chapters. In Chapter 1 a general overview is presented of short/long range ordering in polymers. Chapter 2 then discusses the use of vibrational spectroscopy to probe the short range conformational order present in a series of Langmuir films at...
