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 s

The rotational anisotropy in the optical second harmonic response from flat and stepped Ag electrode surfaces biased in an electrolyte solution have been examined. Compared to the flat Ag( 111) surface, the stepped surfaces show a pronounced effect due to the lowering of the surface symmetry. The re
Adsorption of anions on single crystal and polycrystalline silver surfaces has been monitored with optical second harmonic generation. Potentials investigated were restricted to the range between solvent reduction and the onset of metal osidation. Excess charge density on the metal surface is conclu
We report the use of second harmonic generation (SHG) to study kinetics of adsorption of p-nitrophenol at the air/water interface of a flowing jet. Measurements of the SH signal strength and the polarization of the SH light at various distances (times) along the jet axis yield information about the
