Abstract = {{X-ray absorption spectroscopy and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism have
   been applied to study the oxidation reactions at the buried interface
   resulting from NiO deposition on Fe(001). The NiO layer is obtained by
   reactive deposition; i.e., by evaporating Ni in an O-2 atmosphere. We
   find that NiO reactive deposition on Fe(001) promotes Fe oxidation,
   leading to the formation of a thick, oxygen-rich oxide, identified as
   Fe3O4. This ferrimagnetic interface oxide shows a net magnetization that
   couples ferromagnetically to the iron substrate. This behavior is
   different from the case of the Fe/NiO(001) interface, where formation of
   (antiferromagnetic) FeO occurs. A sample annealing following the growth
   of the NiO/Fe interface is found to reduce the iron and to induce Ni
   diffusion in the Fe substrate.}},
