Abstract

The results of x-ray diffraction, resistivity and magnetization measurements of Ag/Cr metallic superlattices are presented. Dramatic changes in the interplanar distances of Ag and Cr were found as a function of the number of Cr monolayers in a period. The resistivities of the superlattices increased as the composition of Cr increased. Magnetization measurements show that the superlattice [Ag(10ML)/Cr(2ML)] exibits a maximum magnetic susceptibility.
