Simulation of the resonance Raman spectrum of the hydrated electron in the hydrated-hydronium cluster model
Abstract
Vibrational frequencies and resonance Raman (RR) intensities associated with the s → p transition of the unpaired electron in H3O and H3O(H2O)3m clusters have been calculated using ab initio electronic-structure methods and density functional theory. It is found that the simulated spectra converge with increasing cluster size towards the RR spectrum of the solvated electron in
