Optical coatings for improved contrast in longitudinal magneto-optic Kerr effect measurements
15th Nov 2006, 00:54 GMT
P. R. Cantwell, U. J. Gibson, D. A. Allwood, and H. A. M. Macleod We have studied the increases in the longitudinal magneto-optic Kerr effect signal contrast that can be achieved by the application of optical overlayers on magnetic films. For simple coatings, a factor of ~3 improvement in signal contrast is possible. Matching the optical impedance of the magnetic ... [J. Appl. Phys. 100, 093910 (2006)] published Tue Nov 14, 2006.
