Abstract
The dynamics of vibrational energy relaxation (VER) of the OH-stretching vibration of HOD in liquid-to-supercritical heavy water is studied as a function of temperature and solvent density. The VER rate can be correlated phenomenologically with the average hydrogen-bond connectivity within the random D2O-network. This correlation enables the identification of thermodynamic conditions under which spectral diffusion due to hydrogen-bond breakage/formation is much faster than VER.
