Abstract
In recent years, two non-perturbative techniques derived from ellipsom etry and reflectivity at the Brewster angle have been developed to stu dy monolayers at liquid interfaces. The first is an ellipsometric meth od to measure the bending elastic modulus of monolayers at the oil-wat er interfaces. The second is microscopy at the Brewster angle.
