Enhancing magneto-optic effects in two-dimensional magnets by thin-film interference

The magneto-optic Kerr effect is a powerful tool for measuring magnetism in thin films at microscopic scales, as was recently demonstrated by the major role it played in the discovery of two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetism in monolayer CrI3 and Cr2Ge2Te6. These 2D magnets are often stacked with othe...
