The magnetic field is one of the most fundamental control parameters in materials science. A pulsed magnetic-field apparatus can generate high magnetic fields that are inaccessible by conventional DC-field magnets. One important issue is…
Characterizing the optical response of magneto-optic and magnetic materials usually relies on semi-classical models (e.g. Lorentz oscillator model) involving few parameters or models based on a detailed quantum mechanical description of the…
We describe a geometry for a Sagnac interferometer with a zero-area Sagnac loop for measuring magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) at cryogenic temperatures. The apparatus is capable of measuring absolute polar Kerr rotation at 1550 nm…
The magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) is a powerful probe of magnetism. Its contact-free optical nature makes it potentially well suitable for measurements under pulsed magnetic fields if various difficulties are overcome. In this paper,…
In most of the cases the magnetooptic Kerr effect (MOKE) techniques rely solely on the effects linear in magnetization ($\bm{M}$). Nevertheless, a higher-order term being proportional to $\bm{M}$$^2$ and called quadratic MOKE (QMOKE) can…
The magnetooptic Kerr effect (MOKE) is a well known and handy tool to characterize ferro-, ferri- and antiferromagnetic materials. Many of the MOKE techniques employ effects solely linear in magnetization $\bm{M}$. Nevertheless, a…
