The network connectivity in liquid water is revised in terms of electronic signatures of hydrogen bonds (HBs) instead of geometric criteria, in view of recent X-ray absorption studies. The analysis is based on ab initio molecular-dynamics…
The physical nature and the correct definition of hydrogen bond (H-bond) are considered.\,\,The influence of H-bonds on the thermodynamic, kinetic, and spectroscopic properties of water is analyzed.\,\,The conventional model of H-bonds as…
Water is an associated liquid in which the main intermolecular interaction is the hydrogen bond (HB) which is limited to four per atom, independently of the number of neighbours. We have considered a hydrogen bond net superposed on Bernal's…
Fluids under extreme confinement exhibit unique structures and intermolecular bonding, distinct from their bulk analogs, driving innovative applications at the water-energy nexus. Probing confined water experimentally at the length scale of…
Hydrogen as a fuel can be stored safely with high volumetric density in metals. It can, however, also be detrimental to metals causing embrittlement. Understanding fundamental behavior of hydrogen at atomic scale is key to improve the…
Hydrogen bonding plays a crucial role in biology and technology, yet it remains poorly understood and quantified despite its fundamental importance. Traditional models, which describe hydrogen bonds as electrostatic interactions between…
Molecules with an excess number of hydrogen-bonding partners play a crucial role in fundamental chemical processes, ranging from the anomalous diffusion in supercooled water to the transport of aqueous proton defects and the ordering of…
An effective Hamiltonian is considered for hydrogen bonding between two molecules due to the quantum mechanical interaction between the orbitals of the H-atom and the donor and acceptor atoms in the molecules. The Hamiltonian acts on two…
In hydrogenated amorphous silicon oxide (a-SiO:H) films, incorporation of oxygen enhances optical gap due to a large number of St-O-Si bond formation, which lies deep into valence band states. An induction effect of this Si-O on other bonds…
The experimental study of hydrogen bonds and their symmetrisation under extreme conditions is predominantly driven by diffraction methods, despite challenges of localising or probing the hydrogen subsystems directly. Until recently, H-bond…
The covalent-like characteristics of hydrogen bonds offer a new perspective on intermolecular interactions. Here, using density functional theory and post-Hartree-Fock methods, we reveal that there are two bonding molecular orbitals (MOs)…
The prototypical Hydrogen bond in water dimer and Hydrogen bonds in the protonated water dimer, in other small molecules, in water cyclic clusters, and in ice, covering a wide range of bond strengths, are theoretically investigated by…
A first-principles coupled electron-nuclear dynamics simulation based on real-time, time-dependent density functional theory and Ehrenfest dynamics quantitatively repro-duces bimodal translational energy loss and angular distributions…
Hydrogen bonds are typically treated as sufficiently localized directional intermolecular bonds, in which dispersion and electrostatic contributions can be distinguished. However, being formed chiefly due to the overlapping of p orbitals of…
During compression of a water dimer calculated with high-precision first-principles methods, the trends of H-bond and O-H bond lengths show quantum effect of the electronic structure. We found that the H-bond length keeps decreasing, while…
A direct measure of hydrogen bonding in water under conditions ranging from the normal state to the supercritical regime is derived from the Compton scattering of inelastically-scattered X-rays. First, we show that a measure of the number…
Hydrogen bonds play a pivotal role in chemistry, biology, and condensed-matter physics, where quantum tunnelling can strongly influence structure and dynamics. Isotope substitution (H $\rightarrow$ D) provides a sensitive probe of such…
Coulomb repulsion between the unevenly-bound bonding and nonbonding electron pairs in the O:H-O hydrogen-bond is shown to originate the anomalies of ice under compression. Consistency between experimental observations, density functional…
Hydrogen bond (H-bond) covalency has recently been observed in ice and liquid water, while the penetrating molecular orbitals (MOs) in the H-bond region of most typical water dimer system, (H2O)2, have also been discovered. However,…
Coulomb repulsion between the unevenly-bounded bonding "-" and nonbonding ":" electron pairs in the "O2- : H+/p-O2-" hydrogen-bond is found to originate the anomalies of low-compressibility, phonon relaxation dynamics, proton symmetrization…
