Vapor deposited thin films (~100 nm thickness) of toluene and ethylbenzene grown by physical vapor deposition show enhanced stability with respect to samples slowly cooled from the liquid at a rate of 5 K min(-1). The heat capacity is measured in situ immediately after growth from the vapor or after re-freezing from the supercooled liquid at various heating rates using quasi-adiabatic nanocalorimetry. Glasses obtained from the vapor have low enthalpies and large heat capacity overshoots that are shifted to high temperatures.
