Abstract :
The dynamic properties and layer displacement-layer displacement correlation functions of the smectic-A films on a substrate are investigated. The eigenfrequencies spectrum and eigenmotions of the film are calculated within the framework of a discrete model. The effect of thermal fluctuations on the specular and diffuse X-ray scattering were analyzed.
