The electronic and magnetic properties of bulk Cr tips for scanning tunneling microscopy have beeninvestigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations and scanning tunneling spectroscopy(STS) measurements. Spin-resolved densities of states (DOS) were calculated for model tips, i.e., Cr adatomsand clusters on ideal Cr surfaces. STS measurements on Au(111) and Si(111)-7×7 have been interpreted bymodeling the tunneling process in aWentzel-Kramers-Brillouin approximation in order to ascertain the role of tipDOS features. Calculated spin-resolved electronic properties of Cr tips have been used to revisit spin-polarized(SP) STS measurements from the literature. The agreement between experimental findings and DFT calculationsconfirms the relevance of the knowledge of tip electronic properties and of an appropriate model for the tunnelingprocess in the interpretation of STS and SP-STS data
