Effect of magnetic doping on the electronic states of Ni.
Angle-resolved photoemission is used to determine the change in the electronic states of Ni induced by doping with Fe and Cr. Well-defined spin and k states are selected using high energy and k resolution combined with single crystal alloys. Iron suppresses the mean free path of minority spins only, while chromium suppresses both spins and decreases the magnetic splitting. The strong variation of these effects from one impurity to the other supports the concept of magnetic doping.
