We present the results of L-band spectroscopic observations of local bright ULIRGs, performed with ISAAC at VLT. The excellent sensitivity of the telescope and instrument provided spectra of unprecedented quality for this class of objects, which allowed a detailed study of the relative AGN/starburst contribution to the energy output, and of the composition of the circumnuclear absorber. A new mid-infrared diagnostic diagram is proposed, in which starbursts and AGNs are clearly separated.
