Calculated magneto-optical Kerr effect in Fe, Co, and Ni

open access: yesPhysical Review B, 1996
We report ab initio calculations of magneto-optical Kerr effect in Fe, Co, and Ni. Both real and imaginary parts of the interband optical response functions are calculated from self-consistent energy-band calculations in the presence of both a magnetic ...

Theory of magneto-optic Kerr effects

Physical Review B, 1994
The theory of magneto-optic Kerr effects is formulated on the basis of classical interaction of light and matter in a coordinate system attached to the light wave. Induced polarization of the magnetic medium along the propagation axis of the electromagnetic wave is described in terms of an equivalent electric field and the effects are incorporated in ...

Surface magneto-optic Kerr effect

Review of Scientific Instruments, 2000
The surface magneto-optic Kerr effect (SMOKE) has significantly impacted research on magnetic thin films. This is due to its sensitivity, local probing nature, and experimental simplicity. The polar and longitudinal Kerr effects are characterized by a complex rotation of the plane of polarization of linearly polarized incident light upon reflection ...

The magneto-optical Kerr effect of trilayer

Journal of Applied Physics, 1992
In this paper the magneto-optical polar Kerr rotation spectra of trilayers Fe/Ag/Cu, Fe/Cu/Ag, Fe/Au/Cu, and Fe/Cu/Au were measured and calculated. The experimental results coincided well with the calculated results. It was found that for trilayers Fe/Cu/Ag and Fe/Ag/Cu, with a 100 Å thickness of the top Fe layer, there were two Kerr rotation peaks in ...

Magneto-Optic Kerr Effects in Gadolinium

Physical Review B, 1973
An investigation of magneto-optic effects in gadolinium metal is reported. Samples prepared by vacuum evaporation were studied in situ under ultra-high-vacuum conditions to ensure clean optical surfaces. Magneto-optic Kerr rotation and ellipticity, determined using a null-type ellipsometric method, are used to calculate the magnetic contribution to the

Nonlinear magneto-optical Kerr effects

Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics, 1999
The polarization state of a second-harmonic wave after reflection from a semi-infinite, optically isotropic magnetic medium is considered for the three characteristic uniformmagnetization directions corresponding to the linear magneto-optical Kerr effects. Expressions for the complex amplitudes of the wave field which specify the nonlinear Kerr effects,

Nonlinear magneto-optical Kerr effect on a nickel surface

Physical Review B, 1989
Nonlinear surface optics is being developed as a useful new tool in surface science. In this work, we calculate the second-order magneto-optical response function in order to determine the nonlinear magneto-optical Kerr effect. This is applied to the surface of ferromagnetic nickel.

Quantitative magneto-optical Kerr effect on titanomagnetites

Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 1990
Abstract A new application of the magneto-optical Kerr effect is presented, which will allow, in the future, a semi- or fully quantitative analysis of the magnetization direction at every point of a (titano)magnetite surface. The stress-dominated anisotropy of Ti-rich titanomagnetites requires determination of all three components ( M x , M y

Magneto-optical transverse Kerr effect in multilayers

Physical Review B, 2001
We present detailed theoretical and experimental analysis of the magneto-optic transverse Kerr effect in magnetic multilayers. The theoretical model is based upon a phenomenological permittivity tensor. From the general result, suitable only for numerical calculations, we derive several approximate analytical expressions in order to make a qualitative ...
