Excess proton structures in water remain unclear. The motion and nature of excess protons in water were probed using a supported water bridge structure in electric field (E) with an intensity of ∼106 V/m. The experimental setup generated protons that exhibit a long lifetime. The effect of excess protons in water induced a ∼3% variation in the pH for a 300 V overvoltage at the cathode. The current versus voltage curves show a current space-charge-limited operation. By measuring the space-charge distribution in both the cathode and anode and by adjusting the Mott-Gurney law to the measured excess hydrated proton current and the voltage drop in the cationic space-charge region, the protonic mobility was determined to be ∼200 × 10-8 m2/(V·s) (E ≈ 4 × 106 V/m). This measured mobility, which is typically five times larger than the reported mobility for protons in water, is in agreement with the mechanism outlined by Grotthuss in 1805. The measured mid-Raman spectrum covering 1000-3800 cm-1 range indicates the species character. The hydrated excess proton spectral response through the mid-Raman at 1760 and 3200 cm-1 was attributed to the Zundel complex and the region at ∼2000 to ∼2600 cm-1 response is attributed to the Eigen complex, indicating a core structure simultaneously with a Eigen-like and Zundel-like character, suggesting a rapid fluctuation between these two structures or a new specie.
