Abstract
We describe a basic theoretical treatment of how film-substrate and substrate-environment (air, water, and solution) interfaces can be selectively probed by controlling the film thickness and beam angles in a visible-infrared sum frequency generation experiment. In this model, we also account for the unique interfacial environment that may have optical properties that differ from the adjacent bulk phases. We see that this affects components of the electric field that are perpendicular to the surface such as when p-polarized light is used. We then provide an example using the glass-polydimethylsiloxane-air system and model the fields at both surfaces of the polymer. This is followed by some practical considerations for setting up such experiments and some typical experimental results.
期刊介绍：
Biointerphases emphasizes quantitative characterization of biomaterials and biological interfaces. As an interdisciplinary journal, a strong foundation of chemistry, physics, biology, engineering, theory, and/or modelling is incorporated into originated articles, reviews, and opinionated essays. In addition to regular submissions, the journal regularly features In Focus sections, targeted on specific topics and edited by experts in the field. Biointerphases is an international journal with excellence in scientific peer-review. Biointerphases is indexed in PubMed and the Science Citation Index (Clarivate Analytics). Accepted papers appear online immediately after proof processing and are uploaded to key citation sources daily. The journal is based on a mixed subscription and open-access model: Typically, authors can publish without any page charges but if the authors wish to publish open access, they can do so for a modest fee.
Topics include:
bio-surface modification
nano-bio interface
protein-surface interactions
cell-surface interactions
in vivo and in vitro systems
biofilms / biofouling
biosensors / biodiagnostics
bio on a chip
coatings
interface spectroscopy
biotribology / biorheology
molecular recognition
ambient diagnostic methods
interface modelling
adhesion phenomena.
