Abstract
The first structural determination with spin-polarized, energy-depende nt photoelectron diffraction using circularly-polarized X-rays is repo rted for Fe films on Cu(001). Circularly-polarized X-rays produce spin -polarized photoelectrons from the Fe 2p doublet, and intensity asymme tries in the 2p, level are observed. Fully spin-specific multiple scat tering calculations reproduce the experimentally-determined energy and angular dependences. A new analytical procedure which focuses upon in tensify variations due to spin-dependent diffraction is introduced.
