Abstract

Continuously tunable multilayer linear polarizers extend magneto-optical rotation techniques into the extreme ultraviolet and soft x-ray regions. Resonant magneto-optical rotation is large at the Fe L2,3 edges. Magneto-optical Kerr rotation can be either bulk or surface sensitive depending on incidence angle. A SMOKE hysteresis loop measured from the Fe in an Fe/Cr multilayer reveals high sensitivity and a complex magnetic response of Fe.
