Oxidic layers as thin as 20–30 A on α-Fe and stainless steel are studied by57Fe-DCEMS with K-conversion electrons and ICEMS. No indication of a vanishingf-factor could be found. Mossbauer spectra, recorded by use of LMM-Auger electrons (AEMS) and by electrons emitted with energies below 15 eV (LEEMS), contain information on the surface layer as well as on the bulk material, showing that part of these electrons are due to secondary effects and the high escape depths of K-conversion electrons.
