Abstract

AbstractUsing a recently developed spin-polarized, fully relativistic, multiple scattering approach based on the layer KKR Green function method, we have reproduced the Fe 3p angle-resolved soft x-ray photoemission spectra and analyzed the associated large magnetic dichroism effects for excitation with both linearly and circularly polarized light. Comparison between theory and experiment yields a spin-orbit splitting of 1.0 – 1.2 eV and an exchange splitting of 0.9 – 1.0 eV for Fe 3p. These values are 50 – 100 % larger than those hitherto obtained experimentally.
