Abstract:
The structure of anodic iridium oxide (IrOx) under water oxidation was explored using in situ Raman spectroscopy and theoretical calculations. Isotopic substitution experiments and theoretical calculations confirmed formation of an Ir[double bond, length as m-dash]O species during oxygen evolution reaction.
