Magnetic circular dichroism in X-ray fluorescence of Heusler alloys at threshold excitation
Abstract
The results of fluorescence measurements of magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) in Mn L2,L3 X-ray emission and absorption for Heusler alloys NiMnSb and Co2MnSb are presented. Very intense resonance Mn L3 emission is found at the Mn 2p3/2 threshold and is attributed to a peculiarity of the threshold excitation in materials with the half-metallic character of the electronic structure. A theoretical model for the description of resonance scattering of polarized x-rays is suggested.
