Abstract


Here we discuss the deficiencies of standard Effective-Medium Approximation in the application to thin layers and propose the model, which overcomes those problems for 2-dimensional case. Ellipsometry of layers of gold nanoparticles reveals the discussed interparticle interactions in such layers.
