Notes:
The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we describe the adaptation of a variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometer (VASE) to magneto-optic measurements covering 3000–8000 A(ring), and 0 to ±8 kOe. Second, we describe application of VASE to determine Kerr rotation and ellipticity for a series of Dy/Co multilayers prepared by sputter deposition. We report spectroscopic ellipsometric and Kerr effect results for samples exhibiting perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, since these are relevant as magneto-optic recording media.
