27. 2 home-built Langmuir trough with a single Teflon barrier mounted on a POLYVAR-MET microscope. A 50 mW solid-state laser (λ = 532 nm, Enlight Technologies, model MGL-S) was reflected off the air-water interface at an oblique angle. A silicon wafer, mounted on the trough bottom, reflected the transmitted beam out of the field of view, and its polished surface minimized scattering. Laser light scattered from the interface was focused by 20× microscope objective lens coupled to a CCD camera (Dage 772S), which was connected to a TV monitor and a video recording system. Surface pressure was measured with a filter paper Wilhelmy plate and an R&K transducer.
