Figure 5
The behaviour of the scattering (bottom) is shown during the hysteresis cycle (top) when the applied field is parallel to the scattering plane (and parallel to the surface). This is shown when the incident polarization is perpendicular to the scattering plane (σ) on the left and parallel to the scattering plane on the right (π). The minimum in the reflectivity corresponds to the coercivity of the magnetic material. The clear quadratic dependence of the scattering on the magnetic moment is demonstrated. |
