Abstract:
Angular-dependent x-ray magnetic circular dichroism experiments are performed on Ni/Pt multilayers at the Ni L-2,L-3 edges under magnetic fields up to 50 kG at a temperature of 10 K. By rotating the applied field away from the easy axis a decrease of the ratio of the orbital-to-spin magnetic moment mu(L)/ mu(S) Of Ni is observed for perpendicularly magnetized Ni/Pt layers which show considerable magnetic anisotropy energy (approximate to 20 mu eV/atom). Saturation effects in the recorded spectra, depending on both the thicknesses of Ni and Pt, are shown to lead into erroneous conclusions in the determination of mu(L)/mu(S) and they have to be considered in the analysis. An anisotropy of the Ni-orbital moment Delta mu(L) as large as 22% of mu(L) is determined. Delta mu(L) is demonstrated to be the origin of the magnetic anisotropy energy of 3d ferromagnetic elements.
