description: | The results of experiments on monolayers of a surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), at the surface of an aqueous solution are described. Surface-tension measurements and fluorescence microscopy reveal a solid- liquid transition in the surface monolayer at fixed SDS bulk concentration as the temperature is decreased. At low SDS concentrations, faceted monolayer crystals appear, although increasing the concentration induces a change to smooth growth morphologies. The faceted crystals become unstable as growth proceeds, the corners emitting filaments of various shapes. Some of these growth processes seem not to have three-dimensional analogs. (C.D.) |
