The results of optical studies of the diffuse reflectance and transmittance of polyazomethine (PPI) thin films prepared by the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique are reported. The obtained experimental data prove the presence of centers causing the Rayleigh-type scattering of light. These centers, with a spherical structure (spherolites), are formed in the process of crystallization during the growth of PPI films and they are responsible for the volume scattering of light.
