abstract = {Many applications in electronics and spintronics rely on
interfaces, which are buried a few nanometers deep and thus
are hardly accessible in real devices except for invasive
techniques. Here, we report on hard x-ray photoemission
spectroscopy combined with the x-ray standing-wave technique
as a noninvasive method to access buried interfaces with a
depth resolution of a few A and enhanced interface
sensitivity. Within these experiments, the film thicknesses
and also the thicknesses of the intermixing layers are
determined. We extend the data analysis scheme previously
developed for soft x-rays to the hard x-ray regime and apply
the method to buried epitaxial Fe/MgO interfaces, which play
a crucial role in magnetic tunnel junctions and their
applications. It was found that there was no detectable
intermixing or reaction of the Fe and MgO layers at the
interface.},
