Threshold photoemission magnetic circular dichroism of perpendicularly magnetized Ni films on Cu(001): theory and experiment — •Matthias Kronseder, Stefan Günther, Georg Woltersdorf, and Christian H. Back — Universität Regensburg, Regensburg, Deutschland

Threshold photoemission magnetic circular dichroism (TP-MCD) for perpendicularly magnetized Ni films on Cu(001) was measured with a total electron yield method. This dichroism was used to observe the magnetic domain structure of these samples in a photoemission electron microscope. A spin-polarized relativistic Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker Green's function calculation including a dynamical mean field theory approach within the one-step-photoemission model reproduces the measured asymmetry in the photocurrents for left and right circularly polarized light. In addition, a three-step photoemission model calculation based on the same ab-initio calculation is used to quantitatively explain the MCD effect near the photoemission threshold. Furthermore, the dependence of the MCD-asymmetry on the polarization state of the incoming photons is theoretically computed and experimentally verified.
