Percolation of Immobile Domains in Supercooled Thin Polymeric Films
  We present an analysis of heterogeneous dynamics in molecular dynamics simulations of a thin polymeric film, supported by an absorbing structured surface. Near the glass transition "immobile" domains occur throughout the film, yet the probability of their occurrence decreasing with larger distance from the surface. Still, enough immobile domains are located near the free surface to cause them to percolate in the direction perpendicular to surface, at a temperature near the glass transition temperature. This result is in agreement with a recent theoretical model of glass transition.
