Abstract
The lesson of monolayer physics is certainly the usefulness of two-dimensional models in the understanding and interpretation of experimental results.1 This is especially true for those systems using graphite-like substrates and, in particular, those systems in which helium is the adsorbed species. The two-dimensional nature of adsorption on the graphite-like substrates is due to both the strong interaction of gases with these solids, and the fact that the surfaces of these substrates are unusually clean and nearly ideal.2,3

Some evidence of the importance of this kind of effect has been reported in Reference 25.
The “optical” branch will, in fact, not be polarized purely in the direction normal to the surface since the dynamical matrix will, in general, no longer be block diagonal.
