We report the observation from monolayers of eicosanoic acid in the L 2′ phase of three
distinct out-of-plane first-order diffraction peaks, indicating molecular tilt in a nonsymmetry
direction and hence the absence of mirror symmetry. At lower pressures the molecules tilt in
the direction of their nearest neighbors. In this region we find a structural transition, which we
tentatively identify as the rotator-herringbone transition L 2 d− L 2 h.© 1996 The American

Abstract
We report the observation from monolayers of eicosanoic acid in the L 2′ phase of three distinct out-of-plane first-order diffraction peaks, indicating molecular tilt in a nonsymmetry direction and hence the absence of mirror symmetry. At lower pressures the molecules tilt in the direction of their nearest neighbors. In this region we find a structural transition, which we tentatively identify as the rotator-herringbone transition L 2 d− L 2 h.© 1996 The American Physical Society.
