Studies of water and solvents at liquid/solid interfaces by sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy
This dissertation studies the surface chemistry of water and organic solvents at liquid/mineral interfaces using IR-visible sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy. The solvents studied include pentane, heptane, tetradecane and toluene, and the minerals include silica and mica. These...
