## Abstract For the first time, the sum‐frequency generation (SFG) spectra of surface species have been measured in porous silicon (PS) layers. The range of the vibrations 2000–2300 cm^–1^ for the native species Si–H~__x__~ has been explored. Furthermore for the studied mesoporous materials, it has

Abstract
Sum frequency generation (SFG) involving an ultrafast infrared pulse and a 787 nm up‐conversion pulse mixed at the surface of planar or porous Si as well as planar GaAs has been studied. We demonstrate that SFG data can be obtained while porous silicon is in contact either with an aqueous solution or ethanol. The nonresonant SFG signal responds to the chemical composition of the interface. It is also found that ultrafast 787 nm pulses can induce photochemistry between hydrogen‐terminated porous silicon and either aqueous HCl, ethanoic HF, or ethanol. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

The expressions obtained in the previous paper for electrode polarization are applied to a homogeneous planar electrode and a planar array of electrodes used in the generation of nonuniform fields. The effective far field experienced outside the double layer is computed for both electrodes, and samp
