Abstract

Applications of hyperfine-interaction techniques, like NMR, PAC and Mosbauer spectroscopy, to well-characterized surfaces are discussed and the present knowledge of surface hyperfine fields is reviewed. Measurements of nuclear spin relaxation permit to extract the local density of electron states at the Fermi level of adsorbed alkali atoms. From the observed electric-field-gradient properties surface probe sites and diffusion processes can be inferred; the experimentally determined magnetic hyperfine fields give access to the electron-spin behaviour at magnetic surfaces.
