چکیده

Applications of the interface-selective methods of second harmonic (SHG) and sum frequency (SFG) spectroscopy to the investigation of equilibrium and time-dependent properties of interfaces are increasing at an explosive rate.1-53 Among the interfaces studied with these methods are liquid/ gas, solid/gas, and the buried liquid/liquid, liquid/solid, and solid/solid interfaces.35,36,39,41,51,53 In 1996, I was able to write a Chemical ReViews article that was a reasonably comprehensive review of the field. However today, this would require a book-length review if only second harmonic spectroscopy was considered. Though restricting the review to aqueous interfaces for the purposes of this Chemical ReViews issue is helpful, it does not reduce the extensive research topics to a manageable length. On the basis of these considerations, I have limited the review to a rapidly growing area of research, which uses SHG as the primary method. This new area addresses the aqueous interfaces of nanoand microsize particles suspended in aqueous solutions. These small particles in aqueous solution are commonly referred to as colloids. Although colloidal chemistry is a wellestablished field, important in basic science, technology, and medicine,54,55 it is only in the past decade that SHG and SFG spectroscopies have been used specifically to probe aqueous colloid surfaces. One can anticipate that SHG and SFG will have a major impact on the future development of interfacial colloid chemistry.

Study of the Transition to Instability in Second-Harmonic Generation with Scale Index Method

The emergence of second-harmonic generation (SHG) is a pivotal issue to the development of nano-optical devices and interfaces. Here, we perform a classical analysis of the SHG dynamics with the aim of determining critical values of the electric field. The signals of the SHG process are nonlinear, so it seems reasonable that chaos theory can be a suitable tool to analyze their dynamics. For thi...

Spectroscopy and modeling of aqueous interfaces

— The development of deep-UV second-harmonic generation spectroscopy (SHG) for measuring the strong charge transfer to solvent (CTTS) transitions characteristic of all stable aqueous anions has provided a powerful new probe of water interfaces. By employing suitable models, quantitative thermodynamic results have been obtained for a number of fundamental electrolytes, which are generally in goo...

Considerably Enhanced Second-Harmonic Generation in Resonant U-Shaped Nano-Structures

In this paper, we perform a detailed study of the spectral response of the gold U-shaped nano-structures for different geometrical parameters and polarizations in order to obtain significant localization factor in the wavelength 1.55 μm. The obtained near-field distribution of electric fields reveals that resonances in these nano-structures correspond to the even and odd plasmonic modes dependi...

Ultrafast dynamics and structure at aqueous interfaces by second harmonic generation

Femtosecond time-resolved second harmonic generation studies of the barrierless isomerization of an organic dye, malachite green (MG), have been carded out at several aqueous interfaces. A comparison of the dynamics at the air/aqueous, alkane/aqueous and silica/aqueous interfaces, indicates increased friction and increased water structure at the aqueous interfaces relative to bulk water, in sup...
