contents Here, we report a novel and conceptually straightforward technique to detect the spin-polarization directly, with laser spot spatial resolution, at buried ferromagnet/insulator interfaces in ambient settings. This has been accomplished by monitoring the voltage-induced change of the longitudinal MOKE signal as a function of the applied magnetic field and applying an AC voltage across the interface. For the case where the spin polarization enters the VMOKE signal, a simple quantitative model is proposed. A distinct positive majority spin polarization has been found for Fe and Co, whereas Ni exhibits a negative minority spin polarization.
