Angle Dependence of Photonic Enhancement of Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect   in DMS Layers
  We investigate theoretically an angle dependence of enhancement of polar magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) obtained thanks to a deposition of a paramagnetic Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor (DMS) layer on one-dimensional photonic crystal layer. Our transfer matrix method based calculations conducted for TE and TM polarizations of the incident light predict up to an order of magnitude stronger MOKE for a (Ga,Fe)N DMS layer when implementing the proposed design. The maximum enhancement for TE and TM polarization occurs for the light incidence at the normal and at the Brewster angle, respectively. This indicates a possibility of tuning of the MOKE enhancement by adjustment of the polarization and the incidence angle of the light.
