This thesis examines the properties of the interface between two phases in phase separated systems. We are interested in how finite size effects modify the statistical properties of these interfaces, in particular how the dependence of the free energy on the system size gives rise to long range critical Casimir forces close to thecritical point. Often the interfaces in phase separated systems are described by simplified or coarsegrained models whose only degrees of freedom are the interface height. We review how the statics and dynamics of these interface models can be derived from microscopic spin models and statistical field theories. We then examine finite size effects for continuous interface models such as the Edwards Wilkinson model a...
