ConclusionsAngle-resolved infrared spectroelectrochemistry was developed and successfully used for in situ depth profiling at the electrode/electrolyte interface. The results of this work showed that the electrochromic nickel oxide in the oxidized (colored) state has an oxyhydroxide structure and in the reduced (bleached) state contains both ß and a phases of nickelhydroxides. A sandwich structure is ev-ident, particularly in the reduced state with a nickel hy-droxide in the inner part of the film near the nickel substrate and ß nickel hydroxide in the outer part of the film near the electrolyte interface. It is expected that this technique can also be used to probe multiple layers in other metal oxide films.Acknowledgment. We thank Drs. D. M. MacArthur and. K. Carpenter for helpful discussions, R. S. Conell for preparation of the bulk standard samples, and Dr. J. L. Johnson for XRD characterization of the bulk standards.
