(a) Schematic definition of parameters used to calculate HCC. (b–c) Temperature dependence of the shift field (HEB,) coercivity (HC) and HCC parameters as determined from LMOKE data acquired for H || Fe[\(1\overline{1 }0\)] geometry, after (b) field cooling (FC) and (c) cooling without external magnetic field (ZFC). Data for 30 Å CoO on 120 Å thick Fe sample region is shown. In (d–f) exemplary ZFC magnetic hysteresis loops are shown.
