Abstract

Conversion electron Mössbauer spectroscopy has grown during the last decade as a new tool of surface science. High sensitivity, depth selectivity and capabilities of the method in non-destructive backscattering analysis are essential features of CEMS. These virtues made the method advantageous in various applications and stimulated considerable progress in experimental techniques. The latter is the subject of the present paper.
