Abstract
The theory necessary for a quantitative understanding of how surface roughness of dielectrics affects second-harmonic generation measurements of molecular orientation is presented. For a typical fused silica surface, significant error in the measured orientation angle may be present if the influence of roughness is neglected and the molecular distribution is assumed to be narrow.
