  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We obtain values of the sweep rate-dependent coercive field (effective coercivity) from dynamic magneto-optic Kerr effect hysteresis loops for an epitaxial bcc Fe thin film (150 /spl Aring/) on GaAs[001] in the applied field frequency range 0.1-2000 Hz at /spl sim/80 K and at 300 K.
