Confirming historical results by Ornstein and Koefoed (1938), the authors found an anomaly in the optical constants at 1.96eV for bulk nickel near the Curie temperature through careful high-precision spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements from 80 to 800K. The anomaly is only seen in sweeps with increasing temperature if the sample carries a net magnetization. In decreasing temperature sweeps or for...
