Left: Time-averaged vibrational frequency distributions \(P(\omega )\) of all OH modes of water confined in CNTs of chirality (a) (6,2), (b) (6,4) and (c) (6,6) using wavelet transform and a binning approach (see Sec.Vibrational analysis and spectroscopy for OH stretch modes). Bins of width of 10 cm\(^{-1}\) were used. Right: Frequency distributions \(P(\omega _\textrm{OH1})\) and \(P(\omega _\textrm{OH2})\) of stronger H-bonded (OH1) and weakly or not hydrogen-bonded (OH2) intramolecular OH modes, for the same systems.
