    Abstract

    We present neutron reflection data from an alkylammonium surfactant (C16TAB) at the mica/water interface. The system is studied in situ in a noninvasive manner and indicates the formation of a complete adsorbed bilayer with little evidence of defects. A detailed analysis suggests that the data are not consistent with some other previously reported adsorbed structures, such as micelles or cylinders.
