27. In this paper we will use the terms "solid" and "liquid" to refer to phases below and above the phase transition temperature in the mixed monolayers, by analogy with the comparable phases in dodecanol. We do not imply that we have measured the translational correlations in these phases.

40. A semiquantitative calculation for a similar phase transition in a mixed monolayer of SDS and dodecanol predicted that the phase transition would take place over a period of about 1 h (ref 5).

42. -1 to obtain a vibrational spectrum of the fully deuterated component only. We did not acquire spectra in the C-D stretching region in this study because the signal-to-noise ratio is poorer than in the C-H region. Previous work showed excellent agreement between data from the two frequency regions (ref 22).
43. 3 (within the Lorentz model), where e is the relative permittivity of the monolayer. For typical values of ∈, a 10% change in e would change the line strength by only 5%.
44. There is some evidence from theoretical calculations (ref 45) that the anisotropy in the Raman tensor, and hence in the hyperpolarizability tensor, is a nonlocal property of the methyl group and that consequently β may depend on the conformation of the hydrocarbon chain. A comparison of calculated values of the Raman tensor for trans- and gauche-butane suggests that the effect of conformation on β is likely to be at the percent level and can be safely neglected in the analysis here.
