Structural and electronic aspects of IrO 2 films prepared by electrodeposition on Au substrates were investigated by in situ L III -edge X-ray absorption and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopies in both acid and alkaline aqueous solutions. Linear correlations were found between the extent of oxidation of Ir 3+ in the films determined from a statistical fit of the white line, which includes contributions from each of the sites differing by a single electron, and from coulometric analysis of the voltammetric curves. Analysis of the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) yielded Ir−O bond lengths decreasing in the sequence 2.02, 1.97, and 1.93 Å for Ir 3+, Ir 4+, and Ir 5+ sites, respectively. Whereas SERS provided evidence for the presence of crystalline IrO 2 in the highly hydrated films, the lack of intense shells in the Fourier transform of the EXAFS function beyond the nearest oxygen neighbors indicates that the films do not display long-range order.
