“…In transverse MOKE, however, the M T component is predicted 11 to appear for p polarization, i.e., at = 0°. 11 This indicates that both M L and M T can actually be measured in a single geometrical setup simply by changing , but with additional conditions ͑see below͒. For all other , the Kerr loops appear to be a superposition of the loops taken at = 0°and 45°.…”

The asymmetric magnetization reversal in exchange biased Fe/MnF 2 involves coherent (Stoner-Wohlfarth) magnetization rotation into an intermediate, stable state perpendicular to the applied field. We provide here experimentally tested analytical conditions for the unambiguous observation of both longitudinal and transverse magnetization components using the magneto-optical Kerr effect. This provides a fast and powerful probe of coherent magnetization reversal as well as its chirality. Surprisingly, the sign and asymmetry of the transverse magnetization component of Fe/MnF 2 change with the angle between cooling and measurement fields.

“…All theoretical considerations made for MOKE measurements in the near visible spectral range [54,55], such as intensity and phase effects in different settings (longitudinal, transverse, polar) generally extend into the x-ray range. Thus it is straightforward to extend formalisms for near-visible MOKE into the x-ray range, requiring only that optical and MO properties embodied by , , and be properly translated into refractive indices and dielectric tensor elements used in these formalisms [10].…”

“…For simplicity, we shall confine our attention to the case when the (26) and (27), and comparing with (22) and (23) We know that we always get combined Kerr effects in a oblique incidence situation. But we should notice that all three kinds of Kerr effects are functions of incident angle.…”

Surface magneto-optical Kerr effect is used to measure magnetic hysteresis loops for Ni-Fe bilayers previously studied by ferromagnetic resonance [Phys. Rev. 38, 12879 (1988)]. The approach to saturation in the [11] direction confirms the existence of enhanced fourfold in-plane magnetic anisotropy, attributed to the effect of arrays of misfit dislocations arising during the epitaxial growth of bcc Ni overlayers on ultrathin layers of bcc (001)Fe. The [11] magnetization curves for 10 monolayers (ML) of Ni on 7 ML of Fe shows a breaking of symmetry between positive and negative fields. This is ascribed to spin configurations frozen during growth.
