Abstract

We report autodetachment spectra of the mass-selected, anionic water clusters, (H2O)n−, n=2, 3, 5–9, 11 in the OH stretching region (3000–4000 cm−1), and interpret the spectra with the aid of ab initio calculations. For n⩾5, the spectra are structured and are generally dominated by an intense doublet, split by about 100 cm−1, which gradually shifts toward lower energy with increasing cluster size. This behavior indicates that the n=5–11 clusters share a common structural motif. The strong bands appear in the frequency region usually associated with single-donor vibrations of water molecules embedded in extended networks, and theoretical calculations indicate that the observed spectra are consistent with linear “chainlike” (H2O)n− species. We test this assignment by recording the spectral pattern of the cooled (argon solvated) HDO⋅(D2O)5− isotopomer over the entire OH stretching frequency range.
