We investigated the magneto-optical coupling in nominal 5, 10, and 20 nm thick permalloy (Ni81Fe19) thin films embedded in a 3 nm thick Ta and a 3 nm thick Ru layer on Si and on ZnO substrates in the spectral range from 300 to 1100 nm by Mueller matrix ellipsometry measurements in a magnetic field of arbitrary orientation and magnitude up to 400 mT at room temperature [1]. The extracted magnetooptical coupling does not depend on the film thickness [2] and can be used to predict the magnetooptical response for differently designed Ru/permalloy/Ta/Si and Ru/permalloy/Ta/ZnO multilayer samples.
