Description

Iridium is a hard, brittle, silvery-white transition metal. It is the most corrosion-resistant metal and is very dense. It is found in nature in combination with platinum in ores. Iridium is used in various applications, including high-temperature crucibles, electrodes, and spark plugs. It is also used as a catalyst in various chemical processes. The study of iridium is important due to its unique properties and applications, particularly in the fields of materials science, catalysis, and electronics.'

Effects

Iridium has a higher charge injection capacity when activated and transformed into AIROF (activated iridium oxide film) using specific electrical signals. Iridium- 191m has a physical half-life of 4.96 sec and decays with emission of 65-keV and 129-kev photons in 58 and 30% abundance, respectively.

Iridium complexes have been widely applied as molecular sensors because of their rich photophysical properties. Iridium oxide has been used in neural recording and stimulation due to its good stability and large charge storage capacity.
