The anomalous Hall effect in ferromagnetic Fe: Skew scattering or side jump?

The question is investigated whether the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in Fe films is due to skew scattering or side jump. For this purpose sandwiches of FeIn are investigated in which the conduction electrons carry their drift velocity across the interface. This yields an additional AHE conductance $ΔG_{xy}$ whose dependence on the In mean free path is used to determine the mechanism of the AHE in the Fe film. The structure of the Fe film is kept constant.

Localization and superconducting proximity effect in sandwiched potassium films

Thin films of alkali metals when sandwiched at both surfaces by thin metal films loose their conductance. The superconducting proximity effect is used to investigate the change in the alkali film. On the length scale of the film thickness the electronic properties of the alkali film do not change noticeably although its conductance is dramatically reduced, corresponding to localized electrons.
