Abstract
The influence of the ferromagnetism of 3d-metal substrates upon the electronic states of "nonmagnetic" adsorbate overlayers like oxygen and sulphur has been investigated by means of photoelectron spinpolarization spectroscopy. The spectra reveal a substantial exchange splitting of the O 2p- and S 3p-derived bands in chemisorption on Fe and FeCo. This demonstrates the strong magnetic coupling of these species with the substrate.
