a Specular soft X-ray reflectivity curves Ip and Im at the Mn L3-edge resonant energy of 642 eV. b Experimental and calculated magnetic asymmetry at 10 K. The inset of (a) represents the element-specific magnetization depth profile for the Mn ion derived from the best fit of the magnetic asymmetry. c Experimental and calculated magnetic asymmetry with models considering the dead layer (DL) and negative magnetization (NM) at the LSMO/STO interface (up to 3 uc) and their respective magnetic depth profiles (d, e) for the Mn ion, derived from the refinement of the magnetic asymmetry.
