ß-NMR experiments with hyperpolarized 8Li adsorbed on semiconductor and metal surfaces are described (adsorption on Si(111)-(7x7), Si(111)-H, Si(111)-(1x1):H, Ru(001)). They yield detailed information on the electronic properties of these adsorbate--surface systems. Briefly a scenario using hyperpolarized Xe isotopes is sketched, which will extend the potential of the use of hyperpolarized species in NMR experiments on surfaces.
