title: [Review of infrared spectroscopy for water cluster].
abstract: The explanation of structure and binding properties of small clusters provides a key for understanding bulk water in its liquid and solid phase and for understanding solvation phenomena. The progress, characteristic of the investigation on water clusters by Infrared are introduced. The results of far-infrared laser vibration-rotation-tunneling spectroscopy (FIR-VRT) and infrared spectroscopy of size-selected water are outlined in detail, and compared with those of other methods.
