It has been shown recently that impurities embedded in the surface of few monolayers of Fe deposited on W(001) can trigger intriguing anisotropic charge oscillations [1]. This behavior exhibits a strong dependence on the thickness of the Fe film. Combining first-principles methods: the full-potential linearized augmented plane waves method [2] and the full-potential Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker Green function method [2], we investigate this peculiar behavior by considering single oxygen impurities and find that the anisotropic focused charge oscillations are substantially spin-dependent and are only present when the thickness of the Fe film equals 3 monolayers. We relate this effect to spin-dependent features of the two-dimensional Fermi contours that are crucially affected by the thickness of Fe films.
