Abstract
Two common assumptions for simple molecular liquids are that they exhibit a Newtonian response and the no-slip boundary condition at solid-liquid interfaces. By making ultrafast optical measurements of vibrating metal nanoparticles in simple liquids, we have shown that these assumptions can break down on nanometer length scales and on the picosecond time scales that are characteristic of nanoscale motion. Our measurements quantitatively validate a Maxwell model for viscoelasticity in simple, compressible liquids, and provide a measurement of single-nanometer-scale slip lengths at the nanoparticle-liquid interface.
