Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) spectra of H3O+⋯Xn (X = Ar, N2, and CO, n = 1-3) in the first overtone region of OH-stretching vibrations (4800-7000 cm-1) were measured. Not only OH-stretching overtones but also several combination bands are major features in this region, and assignments of these observed bands are not obvious at a glance. High-precision anharmonic vibrational simulations based on the discrete variable representation approach were performed. The simulated spectra show good agreement with the observed ones and provide firm assignments of the observed bands, except in the case of X = CO, in which higher order vibrational mode couplings seem significant. This agreement demonstrates that the present system can be a benchmark for high precision anharmonic vibrational computations of NIR spectra. Band broadening in the observed spectra becomes remarkable with an increase of the interaction with the solvent molecule (X). The origin of the band broadening is explored by rare gas tagging experiments and anharmonic vibrational simulations of hot bands.

Abstract
The diazenylium ion (N2H+) is a ubiquitous ion in dense molecular clouds. This ion is often used as a dense gas tracer in outer space. Most of the previous works on diazenylium ion have focused on the shared-proton stretch band, νH+. In this work, we have performed reduced-dimensional calculations to investigate the vibrational structure of N2H+Ng, Ng = {He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and Rn}. We demonstrate a few interesting things about this system. First, the vibrational coupling in N2H+ can be tuned to switch on interesting anharmonic effects such as Fermi resonance or combination bands by tagging it with different noble gases. Second, a comparison of the vibrational spectrum from N2H+He to N2H+Rn shows that the νH+ can be swept from an "Eigen-like" to a "Zundel-like" limiting case. Anharmonic calculations were performed using a multilevel approach, which utilized the MP2 and CCSD(T) levels of theories. Binding energies for the elimination of Ng in N2H+Ng are also reported.

Abstract
Infrared photodissociation of protonated water clusters with an Ar atom, namely H3O+-Ar and H+(H2O)2-Ar, was investigated by an imaging technique for mass-selected ions, to reveal the intra- and intermolecular vibrational dynamics. The presented system has the advantage of achieving fragment ion images with the cluster size- and mode-selective photoexcitation of each OH stretching vibration. Translational energy distributions of photofragments were obtained from the images upon the excitation of the bound (νb) and free (νf) OH stretching vibrations. The energy fractions in the translational motion were compared between νbI and νfI in H3O+-Ar or between νbII and νfII in H+(H2O)2-Ar, where the labels "I" and "II" represent H3O+-Ar and H+(H2O)2-Ar, respectively. In H3O+-Ar, the νfI excitation exhibited a smaller translational energy than νbI. This result can be explained by the higher vibrational energy of νfI, which enabled it to produce bending (ν4) excited H3O+ fragments that should be favored according to the energy-gap model. In contrast to H3O+-Ar, the νbII excitation of an Ar-tagged H2O subunit and the νfII excitation of an untagged H2O subunit resulted in very similar translational energy distributions in H+(H2O)2-Ar. The similar energy fractions independent of the excited H2O subunits suggested that the νbII and νfII excited states relaxed into a common intermediate state, in which the vibrational energy was delocalized within the H2O-H+-H2O moiety. However, the translational energy distributions for H+(H2O)2-Ar did not agree with a statistical dissociation model, which implied another aspect of the process, that is, Ar dissociation via incomplete energy randomization in the whole H+(H2O)2-Ar cluster.

Abstract
Due to the weak interactions of He atoms with neutral molecules and ions, the preparation of size-selected clusters for the spectroscopic characterization of their structures, energies, and large amplitude motions is a challenging task. Herein, we generate H2O+Hen (n ≤ 9) and H3O+Hen (n ≤ 5) clusters by stepwise addition of He atoms to mass-selected ions stored in a cryogenic 22-pole ion trap held at 5 K. The population of the clusters as a function of n provides insight into the structure of the first He solvation shell around these ions given by the anisotropy of the cation-He interaction potential. To rationalize the observed cluster size distributions, the structural, energetic, and vibrational properties of the clusters are characterized by ab initio calculations up to the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ level. The cluster growth around both the open-shell H2O+ and closed-shell H3O+ ions begins by forming nearly linear and equivalent OH⋯He hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) leading to symmetric structures. The strength of these H-bonds decreases slightly with n due to noncooperative three-body induction forces and is weaker for H3O+ than for H2O+ due to both enhanced charge delocalization and reduced acidity of the OH protons. After filling all available H-bonded sites, addition of further He ligands around H2O+ (n = 3-4) occurs at the electrophilic singly occupied 2pz orbital of O leading to O⋯He p-bonds stabilized by induction and small charge transfer from H2O+ to He. As this orbital is filled for H3O+, He atoms occupy in the n = 4-6 clusters positions between the H-bonded He atoms, leading to a slightly distorted regular hexagon ring for n = 6. Comparison between H3O+Hen and CH3OH2+Hen illustrates that CH3 substitution substantially reduces the acidity of the OH protons, so that only clusters up to n = 2 can be observed. The structure of the solvation sub-shells is visible in both the binding energies and the predicted vibrational OH stretch and bend frequencies.

Abstract
The methylammonium ion (CH3NH3+, or noted as MA-H+) is one of the smallest organic ammonium ions that play important roles in organic-inorganic halide perovskites. Despite the simple structure, the vibrational spectra of MA-H+ exhibit complicated features in the 3 μm region which are sensitive to the solvation environment. In the present work, we have applied the ab initio anharmonic algorithm at the CCSD/aug-cc-pVDZ level to simulate the IR and Raman spectra of the solvated methylammonium ion, MA-H+⋯X3, where X denotes the solvent molecules, to understand the Fermi resonance mechanism in which the overtones of NH bending modes are coupled with the fundamentals of NH stretching modes. The spectral features of the solvated clusters with proper solvent species resemble those observed in the perovskite crystal, indicating that they have similar solvation environments and hydrogen bond interactions. Therefore, a linkage between the gas-phase cluster models and the condensed-phase materials can be established, and our simulations and anharmonic analyses help in interpreting the spectral assignments of the observed IR and Raman spectra of perovskites reliably. Furthermore, we have extended this approach to the SFG spectra to demonstrate the selective appearance of bands depending on both the beam polarization configurations and the symmetry of vibrational modes.

Abstract
The hemibond is a nonclassical covalent bond formed between a radical (cation) and a closed shell molecule. The hemibond formation ability of water has attracted great interest, concerning its role in ionization of water. While many computational studies on the water hemibond have been performed, clear experimental evidence has been hardly reported because the hydrogen bond formation overwhelms the hemibond formation. In the present study, infrared photodissociation spectroscopy is applied to (H2O-Krn)+ (n = 1-3) radical cation clusters. The observed spectra of (H2O-Krn)+ are well reproduced by the anharmonic vibrational simulations based on the hemibonded isomer structures. The firm evidence of the hemibond formation ability of water is revealed.

Abstract
Vibrational spectra of 1:1 clusters of 2-pyridone (2PY) with water, ammonia, and other hydrogen bond-forming molecules have been measured by several experimental groups over the past two decades. Complex vibrational signatures associated with the N-H stretching fundamental at 3 μm are often observed. Several anharmonic coupling schemes have been proposed; however, the origin of these commonly seen complex features remains unclear. In this work, we present our theoretical analysis on the structure and vibrational spectra of these clusters using ab initio random search and ab initio anharmonic algorithms, respectively. Low-energy conformers were found to be hydrogen-bonded clusters and their vibrational spectra at 3 μm were simulated with ab initio anharmonic algorithms. We demonstrate that simple anharmonic mechanisms of Fermi resonance (FR), coupling between NH stretching modes, and overtone/combinations of skeleton modes of 2PY can lead to the complex vibrational signatures observed experimentally. Since this vibrational coupling scheme is inherent to the cis-amides with adjacent N-H and C═O groups when a hydrogen bond is formed with 2PY as the donor and acceptor, we believe that such a phenomenon is general to other hydrogen-bonding systems with the same functional group.

Abstract
Vibrational spectra of the methyl groups in mono-methylamine (MMA), dimethylamine (DMA), and trimethylamine (TMA) monomers and their clusters were measured in three experimental set-ups to capture their complex spectral features as a result of bend/umbrella-stretch Fermi resonance (FR). Multiple bands were observed between 2800 and 3000 cm-1 corresponding to the methyl groups for MMA and DMA. On the other hand, the corresponding spectrum of TMA is relatively simple, exhibiting only four prominent bands in the same frequency window, even though TMA has a larger number of methyl groups. The discrete variable representation (DVR) based ab initio anharmonic algorithm with potential energy surface (PES) at CCSD/aug-cc-pVDZ quality is able to capture all the experimentally observed spectral features across all three amines, and the constructed vibrational Hamiltonian was used to analyze the couplings that give rise to the observed FR patterns. It was observed that the vibrational coupling among CH stretch modes on different methyl groups is weak (less than 2 cm-1) and stronger vibrational coupling is found to localize within a methyl group. In MMA and DMA, the complex feature between 2850 and 2950 cm-1 is a consequence of closely packed overtone states that gain intensities by mixing with the stretching modes. The simplification of the spectral pattern of TMA can be understood by the red-shift of the symmetric CH3 stretching modes by about 80 cm-1 relative to MMA, which causes the symmetric CH3 stretch to shift outside the FR window.

Abstract
Complex vibrational features of solvated hydronium ion, H3O+, in 3 μm enable us to look into the vibrational coupling among O-H stretching modes and other degrees of freedom. Two anharmonic coupling schemes have often been engaged to explain observed spectra: coupling with the OH bending overtone, known as Fermi resonance (FR), has been proposed to account for the splitting of the OH stretch band at ∼3300 cm-1 in H3O+···Ar3, but an additional peak in H3O+···(N2)3 at the similar frequency region has been assigned to a combination band (CB) with the low-frequency intermolecular stretches. While even stronger vibrational coupling is expected in H3O+···(H2O)3, such pronounced peaks are absent. In the present study, vibrational spectra of H3O+···Kr3 and H3O+···(CO)3 are measured to complement the existing spectra. Using ab initio anharmonic algorithms, we are able to assign the observed complex spectral features, to resolve seemingly contradictory notions in the interpretations, and to reveal simple pictures of the interplay between FR and CB.

Abstract
The infrared spectra of the C-H stretching vibrations of (pyridine)m, m = 1-3, and the N-H stretching vibrations of (pyridine)m-(NH3)n, m = 1, 2; n = 1-4, complexes were investigated by infrared (IR)-vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) spectroscopy under jet-cooled conditions. The ionization potential (IP0) of the pyridine monomer was determined to be 74 546 cm-1 (9.242 eV), while its complexes showed only smooth curves of the ionization thresholds at ∼9 eV, indicating large structural changes in the ionic form. The pyridine monomer exhibits five main features with several satellite bands in the C-H stretching region at 3000-3200 cm-1. Anharmonic calculations including Fermi-resonance were carried out to analyze the candidates of the overtone and combination bands which can couple to the C-H stretching fundamentals. For (pyridine)2 and (pyridine)3, most C-H bands are blue-shifted by 3-5 cm-1 from those of the monomer. The structures revealed by random searching algorithms with density functional methods indicate that the π-stacked structure is most stable for (pyridine)2, while (pyridine)3 prefers the structures stabilized by dipole-dipole and C-Hπ interactions. For the (pyridine)m-(NH3)n complexes, the mass spectrum exhibited a wide range distribution of the complexes. The observed IR spectra in the N-H stretching vibrations of the complexes showed four main bands in the 3200-3450 cm-1 region. These features are very similar to those of (NH3)n complexes, and the bands are assigned to the anti-symmetric N-H stretching band (ν3), the symmetric N-H stretching (ν1) band, and the first overtone bands of the N-H bending vibrations (2ν4). The anharmonic calculations including the Fermi-resonance between ν1 and 2ν4 well reproduced the observed spectra.

Abstract
We presented the first three-dimensional (3D) ab initio intermolecular potential energy surface (PES) for the H3O+-Ar complex. The electronic structure computations were carried out at the explicitly correlated coupled cluster theory-F12 with an augmented correlation-consistent triple zeta basis set. Analytic 3D PES was obtained by least-squares fitting the multi-dimensional Morse/Long-Range (mdMLR) potential model to interaction energies, where the mdMLR function form was applied to the nonlinear ion-atom case for the first time. The 3D PES fitting to 1708 points has root-mean-square deviations of 0.19 cm-1 with only 108 parameters for interaction energies less than 500 cm-1. With the 3D PES of the H3O+-Ar complex, we employed the combined radial discrete variable representation/angular finite basis representation method and Lanczos algorithm to calculate rovibrational energy levels. The rotational profiles of the O-H anti-stretching vibrational bands of v3 +(S)←0+ and v3 -(A)←0- for the H3O+-Ar complex were predicted and were in good agreement with the experimental results.

Abstract
The infrared spectrum of proton-bound rare gas dimers has been extensively studied via matrix isolation spectroscopy. However, little attention has been paid on their spectrum in the gas phase. Most of the Rg2H+ has not been detected outside the matrix environment. Recently, ArnH+ (n = 3-7) has been first detected in the gas-phase [D. C. McDonald et al., J. Chem. Phys. 145, 231101 (2016)]. In that work, anharmonic theory can reproduce the observed vibrational structure. In this paper, we extend the existing theory to examine the vibrational signatures of Rg2H+, Rg = {Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe}. The successive binding of Rg to H+ was investigated through the calculation of stepwise formation energies. It was found that this binding is anti-cooperative. High-level full-dimensional potential energy surfaces at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVQZ//MP2/aug-cc-pVQZ were constructed and used in the anharmonic calculation via discrete variable representation. We found that the potential coupling between the symmetric and asymmetric Rg-H+ stretch (ν1 and ν3 respectively) causes a series of bright n1ν1 + ν3 progressions. From Ne2H+ to Xe2H+, an enhancement of intensities for these bands was observed.

Abstract
Anharmonic vibrational calculations on Methylamine (MMA) clusters suggest that the origin of the complexity between 2800 and 3000 cm–1 is caused by Fermi resonance (FR) between the stretching and bending overtones of the CH3 group. In trimer and tetramer, FR also causes complex spectra pattern in the NH2 group.
