| Description | Journal: Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics The variation with deposition pressure of birefringence retardation in Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of 22-tricosenoic acid is shown to correlate very well with previously reported attenuated-total-reflection studies of their scattering, as expected if the latter is due to orientational fluctuations. It is shown that macroscopic orientational inhomogeneities can account for a significant contribution to the apparent dielectric loss and that microscopic fluctuations of film orientation are probably also involved. The contribution due to macroscopic inhomogeneities varies with the experimental parameters and hence is not characteristic of the film alone. |
