Abstract
Optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) was shown to be a sensitive probe tor studying surfaces, interfaces, and thin films. SHG in systems with spatiai inhomogene it.y of the quadratic susceptibility—hyper-Rayleigh scattering (HRS)—a perspective tool to study the statistical properties of spatial distribution of nonlinear sources. We present the investigation of SHG and HRS in thin solid films of bacteriorhodopsin (bR).
