The ultrathin films are characterized by low-energy electron diffraction, x-ray absorption spectroscopy, and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). By employing sum rules on the XMCD spectra we obtain ms=3.6 μB/f.u. for samples of around 35 Å. This is considered a bulk value and has been reported only for films more than 10 times thicker. Moreover, we show that even 10-Å-thick magnetite already presents a significant magnetic moment. For both grown directions the moment increases similarly with the thickness. The ferromagnetic behavior for each iron ion site (Feocta2+, Feocta3+, Fetetra3+) of Fe3O4 is measured by monitoring XMCD peaks. The deduced hysteresis curves (per ion, per site) exhibit a coercive field of 300 Oe. Our results show that both the ferrimagnetic order and the bulk moment value are preserved at room temperature around the thickness of 2 unit cells.We perform a systematic study on the evolution of the magnetic spin moment (ms) of epitaxial [100]- and [111]-magnetite films of increasing thickness.
