We have calculated the static structure factor S(k) and equal time height-height correlation function C(R) for surface hydrodynamic modes based on a coupled two-fluid model where the polymer response is taken to be that of a Maxwell viscoelastic material [Harden et al, J. Chern. Phys. 94, 5208 (1991)]. We obtain the leading correction term to the capillary-wave result for C(R) dependent On the solution shear modulus Eo, as well as an analytic approximation valid for large Eo, including the case of pure polymer melt.
