What are the Challenges in Using Nonlinear Optics for Catalysis?
Despite its advantages, there are some challenges associated with the use of nonlinear optics in catalysis:
1. Complexity of Interpretation: The data obtained from nonlinear optical techniques can be complex and require sophisticated models for interpretation.
2. Instrumentation Costs: The equipment required for nonlinear optical studies can be expensive, limiting its accessibility to some research groups.
3. Limited Penetration Depth: Nonlinear optical techniques are generally surface-sensitive, which may be a limitation when studying bulk properties of catalysts.
