Abstract

In this paper, the Second Harmonic light intensity scattered off a liquid solution upon illumination by an incident fundamental frequency beam is written within a general framework in order to describe its coherent and incoherent contributions. It is shown that this formulation requires the introduction of a correlation function in time, position and orientation. We discuss this framework in light of recent experiments where the interface and the bulk of liquid solutions can be investigated simultaneously. We apply here this analysis to a neat water solution to compare the bulk volume and the interface correlation functions.
