New method for determination of surface pK, using second harmonic generation
A new method to determine the pK, of chemical species at aqueous insulating interfaces is based on the discovery that the interface potential is linearly proportional to the measured second harmonic electric field. The proportionality constant is the effective third-order susceptibility and is the same for all aqueous interfaces studied, which has its origin in the polarization of bulk water in...
متن کاملNew Method for Determination of Surface Potential of Microscopic Particles by Second Harmonic Generation
A new noninvasive method for determining the surface electrostatic potential and surface charge density of microscopic particles using second harmonic generation (SHG) is described. The surface electrostatic properties of 1.05 μm polystyrene sulfate spheres in aqueous solution and that of 0.22 μm oil droplets in aqueous emulsions are obtained. Comparisons of the surface potentials obtained from...
متن کاملSecond-harmonic generation
The goal of this experiment in nonlinear optics is to study the conversion of a (very small) fraction of laser light from its original wavelength of 980 nm (i.e. invisible to the naked eye) to its second-harmonic at a wavelength of 490 nm. This conversion takes place by mild focussing of an intense laser beam in a nonlinear birefringent crystal of BBO (= β BaBO4). You will study the physical pr...
متن کاملSymmetry superposition studied by surface second-harmonic generation.
The components of a third-rank g' ' tensor have been split into contributions due to 1-fold, 2fold, 3-fold, and (x}-fold or isotropic rotation axes for a surface of C, symmetry. Theoretical analysis of the rotation patterns obtained by the surface second-harmonic (SH) generation indicates that a complete symmetry analysis cannot be performed without knowledge of the relevant distribution functi...
متن کاملOptical Second Harmonic Generation as a Probe of Surface Chemistry
Optical second harmonic generation (SHG) is the nonlinear conversion of two photons of frequency w to a single photon of frequency 2w which, in the electric dipole approximation, requires a noncentrosymmetric medium. The ability of noncentrosymmetric crystals to produce SHG has led to their implementation as frequency doublers in a wide variety of laser systems. SHG can also be obtained from th...
