We present first ARPES studies of the electronic structure of the Hf(0001) surface. High-Z materials have attracted much interest, because the strong spin-orbit coupling in combination with the broken inversion symmetry and an important effective electric field at the surface results in a spin-momentum locking. Spin-polarized electrons at the surface are of interest in physics and novel applications in electronics and data processing. Extra sharp peaks observed in experiment are identified thanks to ab-initio calculations performed within the SPR-KKR package. These extra states come from oxygen contamination of the highly reactive surface of Hf(0001). Further comparison is done on the ARPES level, thanks to the one-step model which include all matrix elements effect, resulting in an excellent agreement.
