Classical Local-Field Effect in Reflectance from Adsorbed Overlayers

Abstract
The role of the local-field effect in differential reflectance spectroscopy is studied within a classical model for an ordered overlayer of a weakly adsorbed species on a metal substrate. Results for Ar on Al at two coverages strongly indicate the importance of the local-field effect in such optical studies.
