摘要
Magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) of the Fe/Au superlattices and the FeAu L1(0) alloy has been studied by using the first principles full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave method. The calculated MOKE spectra show pronounced structures in the region from 2 to 6 eV, in agreement with experiment. The line shape of the MOKE spectra of Fe-n/Au-n superlattices strongly depends on their lattice period (n) and interfacial interdiffusion. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics.
