17. To quantitatively compare the intensities of the toluene and the polystyrene SFG spectra, differences in Fresnel coefficients must be accounted for (see ref 13). However, since the refractive index of toluene (n = 1.4961 [CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 80th ed.; CRC Press: Cleveland, OH, 1999])
18. is similar to that of polystyrene (n = 1.5129 [Galiatsatos, V. et al. In Physical Properties of Polymers Handbook; Mark, J. E., Ed.; AIP Press: Woodbury, NY, 1996; Chapter 39]) the correction is small - so a direct comparison of intensities for qualitative purposes is reasonable.
19. The 30 min equilibrium period is based on an estimate of the 0.1 nm/s rate of diffusion of toluene in polystyrene. For discussion of diffusion rates see: Gall, T. P.; Kramer, E. J. Polymer 1991, 32, 265.
