J. Schwitalla et al., A FULLY RELATIVISTIC DESCRIPTION OF THE CIRCULAR AND LINEAR MAGNETIC-X-RAY DICHROISM IN MAGNETIC MULTILAYER SYSTEMS, Physica. B, Condensed matter, 209(1-4), 1995, pp. 757-759
A description of the magnetic dichroism in X-ray absorption (MXD) base
d on the spin polarized relativistic linear-muffin-tin-orbital (SPRLMT
O) method of band structure calculation is proposed. The high efficien
cy of the SPRLMTO-method allows its straightforward application to mag
netic multilayer systems. This is demonstrated by calculations for the
L(2,3)-edges of Co and Cu in Co5/Cu4, which are found to be in very s
atisfying agreement with the experiment.
