Abstract

Lorentz tensor and local field tensor components for uniaxial Langmuir-Blodgett films of cadmium arachidate from 3 to 100 nm thick on silver, polymethyl methacrylate, and glass substrates have been experimentally determined using the data on the film refractive index dispersion in the visible range. The constraints from below on the mean value and anisotropy of the molecular polarizability caused by the intermolecular interactions in the film have been established.
