Spin-dependent inter- and intraband scattering in image-potential-state bands on 3d ferromagnets — •Anke B. Schmidt1, Martin Pickel2, Markus Donath1, and Martin Weinelt21Physikalisches Institut, Universität Münster, Wilhelm-Klemm-Straße 10, 48149 Münster, Germany — 2Max-Born-Institut, Max-Born-Straße 2A, 12489 Berlin and Freie Universität Berlin, Fachbereich Physik, Arnimallee 14, 14195 Berlin, Germany

We have observed ultrafast electron-magnon scattering of image-potential-state electrons on ultrathin ferromagnetic films in three different regions of energy and momentum transfer directly in the time domain. In our spin- and time-dependent photoemission experiment we employ the dispersing image-potential-state electron as observer or primary electron, thus effectively separating low-energy losses from direct decay into d-holes. For the quasielastic processes resonant interband scattering and dephasing at the band minimum as well as intraband scattering, an energy relaxation process, we found evidence to suggest that electron-magnon scattering constitutes a significant scattering channel for excited minority-spin electrons on iron even on the femtosecond timescale.
