Abstract
We describe how to separate all surface, interface, and bulk tensor co mponents in optical second-harmonic generation experiments on isotropi c thin films. Using in situ thickness scans and group theoretical argu ments concerning the bulk tensor components, we demonstrate that the s econd-harmonic resonance of C60 at 2HBARomega=3.6 eV is of bulk charac ter, and, quite remarkably, of magnetic dipole induced origin.
