Water clusters: structures and optical vibrational spectra

Autors: 
Kargovskij Aleksej Vladimirovich, Lomonosov Moscow State University
Abstract: 

Numerical calculations of structures, Infrared and Raman vibrational spectra of small water clusters are performed by solution of the molecular Schrodinger equation in the X 3LYP/aug-cc-pVQZ theory. Spectral features and evolution of hydrogen bond properties in clusters with their size growth are discussed. Obtained results may be used in molecular dynamics simulations of water.
