Computer experiments on the information depth and the figure of merit in magnetooptics

Abstract: A numerical simulation procedure is used to answer some fundamental questions about magnetooptical phenomena. By investigating hypothetical thin buried layers of magnetic material in a non‐magnetic environment of otherwise identical optical properties a suggestive law is derived for the information depth profile of Kerr effect measurements. Differences in phase between contributions from different depth often limit the range of the Kerr effect to a higher degree than absorption. In oxides the profile has usual… Show more

“…Following Traeger et al [40], ζ(z) was calculated by setting m = 0 with the exception of a part z, z +dz where m = 1, and determining the complex Kerr angle of this part Φ dz = θ dz + iǫ dz for this system. To take pumpinduced changes into account we normalized Φ dz to the equilibrium values and obtain…”

“…For the interpretation of the collected C-MOKE data, it is necessary to distinguish between element dependence [25] and depth dependence [26,27] of the C-MOKE method. In our case, where we want to make use of the element dependence to gain layer specificity, we fabricated a sufficiently thin Ni layer, where the depth-dependent dynamics in Ni can be neglected [see Supplemental Material (SM) [28]].…”
