*where :
L2 absorption of RCP photon
At the L2 edge, the atom preferentially (3/4) emits spin-down electrons
32
L3 absorption of RCP photon
The photoelectron ejected in the absorption process acquires a spin σz and an orbital polarization lz
At the L3 edge, the atom preferentially (5/8) emits spin-up electrons

XMCD :
- is very sensitive (0.001 monolayers)
- is element specific (also gives oxydation state)
- can provide information on spin and orbital magnetizations separately(magneto-optical sum rules)

A few recent examples :
- Metal nanoparticles
- Chromium on gold
- Cobalt on platinum
- Molecular magnetism
- Single Molecule Magnets
42
Why metal nanoparticles?
- fundamental reasons and questions:
magnetism in low D, quantum effects, crossover 2D-3D,
reduced coordination, new effects or behaviours (e.g. AF→ FM)
- practical reasons : applications, applications, applications…

Reduced coordination of atoms on a flat surface favors survival of atomic-likecharacter.
Stable ferromagnetic particles can be made smaller by artificially reducing the coordination.
Magnetic anisotropy can be so high that a 7T field does not switch the moment of an adatom.
