Abstract
Optical sum-frequency generation was used to study OH stretch vibrations of water molecules at fused quartz-water interfaces. The results indicate that orientations and bond ordering of interfacial water molecules are strongly affected by electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding of the molecules with the quartz surface.
