摘要
The in-depth selectivity of magneto-optical second-harmonic generation (MSHG) is investigated in the CoO/Co/NiO/Fe-Ni/Cu film structure. The p(in)p(out) MSHG is essentially selective to only one NiO/Fe-Ni buried magnetic interface, whereas p(in)s(out) and s(in)p(out) MSHG is shown to be magnetically sensitive to all interfaces. MSHG data are also compared to the usual longitudinal Kerr effect. Symmetry arguments and calculations point out that the observed in-depth MSHG selectivity is mainly linked to the electric field profile of the incident radiation through the multilayer structure.
