“…At ambient pressure and low temperatures, the metastable amorphous states and their conversion have been intensively studied using different experimental methods such as X-ray ,, and neutron diffraction, , calorimetry, ,, broadband dielectric relaxation, , and deuteron and 17 O NMR , spectroscopy. The vibrational spectrum of amorphous ices was previously accessed using Raman spectroscopy , and incoherent inelastic neutron scattering. − Additionally, infrared spectroscopy allows studying amorphous ices at the molecular level by measuring vibrational states of hydrogen bonds. , This is of particular interest for a comparison with astrophysical data. , The low-density amorphous state of water grown by vapor deposition is studied intensively using infrared spectroscopy. − However, no IR data of the high-density forms obtained by pressure induced amorphization have so far been reported. Water unlike other liquids absorbs strongly in the mid-IR region.…”
