The hydrogen bond represents an important interaction between
molecules, and the dynamics of hydrogen bonds in water create an
ever-present question associated with the process of chemical and
biological reactions. In spite of numerous studies, the process
remains poorly understood at the microscopic level because
hydrogen-bond dynamics, such as bond rearrangements and
hydrogen/proton transfer reactions, are extremely difficult to
probe. Those studies have been carried out by means of
spectroscopic methods where the signal stems from the ensemble of a
system and the hydrogen-bond dynamics were inferred indirectly.
This book addresses the direct imaging of hydrogen-bond dynamics
within water-based model systems assembled on a metal surface,
using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). The dynamics of
individual hydrogen bonds in water clusters, hydroxyl clusters, and
water-hydroxyl complexes are investigated in conjunction with
density functional theory. In these model systems, quantum dynamics
of hydrogen bonds, such as tunneling and zero-point nuclear motion,
are observed in real space. Most notably, hydrogen atom relay
reactions, which are frequently invoked across many fields of
chemistry, are visualized and controlled by STM. This work presents
a means of studying hydrogen-bond dynamics at the single-molecule
level, providing an important contribution to wide fields beyond
surface chemistry.
