Abstract

Magnetic superlattices serve as model systems for the study of thin film, interfacial, proximity, coupling and superlattice phenomena. Due to these phenomena, the physical properties of magnetic superlattices can be tuned in a reproducible fashion by proper control of the preparation process.

Magnetic measurements in conjunction with detailed structural characterization provide a fruitful area of research, especially in understanding basic phenomena in magnetism. We describe here briefly a few experimental examples from our work which illustrate the possibilities magnetic superlattices offer for the study of basic phenomena in magnetism.
