Precisely size‐selected protonated water clusters H + (H 2 O) n ( n =20–200) were studied by IR spectroscopy to provide insights into the structures of large‐scale H‐bonded water networks. The spectral features reveal that cluster structures gradually approach that of the bulk‐water network and involve a greater number of four‐coordinate water molecules with increasing cluster size (see picture).
