HX.OH-). The fundamentals of the shared proton stretch become quite intense, for example, and exhibit extreme red-shifts as the intracluster proton-transfer process becomes available, first in the vibrationally excited states (F-.H2O) and then finally at the zero-point level (OH-.H2O). In the latter case, the loss of the water molecule's independent character is confirmed through the disappearance of the approximately 1600 cm(-1) HOH intramolecular bending transition and the dramatic (>3000 cm(-1)) red-shift of the shared proton stretch. An unexpected manifestation of vibrationally mediated charge transfer is also observed in the low frequency region, where the 2 " />
