Efficiency and stability enhancements of IrO2 catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction by a dynamic, rather than static, potential program are targeted in my project.

Thereto, time resolved operando vibrational spectroscopy during the water splitting reaction is applied to characterize intermediate species forming on the surface.
