ABSTRACTOptical second harmonic generation is a new surface diagnostic applicable both in ultra-high vacuum and ambient environments and capable of examining gas-solid, liquid-solid and solid-solid interfaces. Studies of surface segregation of chromium and nitrogen on Fe-18Cr-3Mo(II0) single crystal surfaces in ultra-high vacuum are described. Major increases in second harmonic intensity generated by 700 nm excitation at the surface are seen upon heating to temperatures at which chromium and nitrogen cosegregate. Adsorption of oxygen has also been studied on this surface. Second harmonic generation shows promise in providing structural and electronic information for surfaces and interfaces in a wide variety of environments.

AbstractOptical second harmonic generation has been observed in transparent tellurite glass-ceramics of Ba0-TiO2-TeO2 system. BaTiO3 and unidentified crystalline phase precipitate from 15BaO·15TiO2·7OTeO2 glass. The temperature of maximum rate of nucleation for these crystalline phases is estimated to be 380°C. The BaTiO3 crystal precipitated is a cubic phase with lattice parameter of 0.4045 nm, which is slightly larger than the value reported in the JCPDS cards. The optical second harmonic intensity of the present transparent tellurite glass-ceramics is comparable to the intensity of poled tellurite glasses although the BaTiO3 phase precipitated is cubic and the crystal face is randomly oriented in the glass-ceramics. For instance, the second harmonic intensity of the present transparent tellurite glass-ceramics is about twice as large as that of 20WO3·80TeO2 glass poled at 280°C under the external electric field of 3 kV, the second-order nonlinear coefficient, d33, of which is 0.10 pm/V.
