51. Although the minimum in (Formula presented) and the leveling of (Formula presented) with l (Fig. 77) were not seen in direct measurements by DeMaggio et al. 16 and Forrest et al. 1718, both can be rationalized by the free surface and melt-solid interfaces exerting different influences on the average value of D in thin supported films. The prior work established that a free surface tends to suppress both (Formula presented) and (Formula presented) while an interactive solid surface does the opposite, hence the free surface should tend to enhance D while the solid should tend to suppress it. If the two surfaces have unequal, opposing influences, non-monotonic trends in the (Formula presented) and (Formula presented) calculated from D could result.
