Fullerene-embedded Langmuir-Blodgett films probed by spectroscopic ellipsometry

This work presents the first results of ellipsometric investigation of fullerene embedded Langmuir-Blodgett films on gold with surface plasmon excitation. In contrast to the standard ellipsometry, the spectrum of the delta angle obtained in such way has pronounced peculiarities at the C60 optical transitions. Obtained data unambiguous exhibit dependence of electromagnetic response of the system of interest on the proximity of fullerene to the gold surface.
