Sum Frequency Generation Microscopy of Electrochemical Interfaces — •Steven Baldelli — University of Houston, Houston, Texas

Sum frequency generation spectroscopy (SFG) is a valuable technique to study the molecular properties of surfaces. As a second-order technique, it is uniquely sensitive to the average organization of molecules at the surface. However, as most surfaces are spatially heterogeneous, it isn't easy to interpret the spectrum as a single domain. The development of SFG into microscopy has allowed a more detailed and accurate analysis of the spatio-spectro-temporal evolution of surface chemistry. The SFG microscope development will be presented, and compressive sensing and the application toward electrocatalysis will be used.
