La génération de la fréquence somme est une technique d’optique non linéaire développée récemment pour sonder in situ et sélectivement les espèces adsorbées à l'interface entre deux milieux condensés, la seule contrainte étant la transparence d’une des phases. Cette technique est obtenue par mixage non linéaire(synchronisation) d’une onde laser visible fixe(laser YAG [Yttrium Aluminium Garnet] doublé) et d’une onde laser infrarouge accordable(laser à électrons libres). 1, record 2, French, - mixage%20non%20lin%C3%A9aire
