Jul 1, 2013 at 12:01 comment added Vibert See my answer. The Langrangian density must have dimension $m^D = m^{d+1}.$ Derivatives have dimension $m^1$, so the dimension of $\phi$ follows from the fact that $(\partial \phi)^2 \sim m^{d+1}.$
Jul 1, 2013 at 10:32 comment added Raisa How $\phi$ has the dimension of $m^{d/2-1/2}$?
