Abstract
Inelastic exchange scattering of low-energy electrons off disordered localized Cr{sup 3+} magnetic moments at a Cr{sub 2}O{sub 3} surface is studied by spin-polarized electron-energy-loss spectroscopy. The excitations from a spin-quartet ground state to doublet states via exchange scattering give rise to sharp energy-loss lines, which are predominantly spin flip, and provide an efficient electron depolarization mechanism.
