Thermodynamical properties of ultrathin films were analysed using Green's function method. Mean-square of the molecular displacements, mean-square of the velocities and the phonon contribution to the specific heat of the thin films were calculated. A comparison with crystal bulk has shown that thermodynamical properties of thin films are strongly influenced both by the sample dimensions and boundary...
