Optical magnetic circular dichroism in two-photon photoemission — •Kerstin Hild, Jochen Maul, Gerd Schoenhense, and Hans-Joachim Elmers — Institut fuer Physik, Staudinger Weg 7, Johannes Gutenberg-Universitaet, D-55128 Mainz

Magnetic circular dichroism in two-photon photoemission (2PPE) was demonstrated based on frequency-doubled femtosecond laserlight (pulse length ~150fs). Thin films of Ni2MnGa and Co2FeSi Heusler alloys showed magnetic asymmetries in the integrated photoemission intensity of 0.35% and 0.43%. Thereby, 2PPE was excited by perpendicular incident polarization-modulated light, while the sample magnetization was orientated parallel and antiparallel to the laser beam by an external magnetic field. Asymmetries were measured by a phase-sensitive detection. Furthermore a magnetite thin film was investigated by frequency-tripled laser light in one-photon photoemission showing a magnetic asymmetry of 0.47%, which is much larger than the value 0.08% measured under two-photon-photoemission. The results are compared with earlier work using linearly polarized UV light [1] and circularly polarized laser light [2].
