Figure Lengend Snippet: a The model constructed for molecular dynamic simulations featuring PEI polymer wetted by Al 2 O 3 layers (left), and the corresponding diffusion coefficient ( D ) of PEI polymer chains at different positions from the bottom to top Al 2 O 3 surfaces. b The diffusion coefficient of PEI polymer chains as a function of temperature. c Variation of T g for confined PEI with different film thicknesses, the thickness of the Al 2 O 3 layers is fixed at 28 nm. The error bars (±1 °C) represent the inherent error due to the fitting of the data required to obtain T g . d , e Variations of d Young’s modulus and e resistivity for PEI-Al 2 O 3 nanolaminates with different PEI thicknesses at various temperatures, the thickness of the Al 2 O 3 layers is fixed at 28 nm. f Dependency of breakdown strength on PEI film thickness for PEI-Al 2 O 3 nanolaminates at various temperatures, the thickness of the Al 2 O 3 layers is fixed at 28 nm.
