  • Abstract
    Multilayered films were prepared by alternating deposition of Mn and Sb in ultra-high vacuum. On deposition, Mn atoms reacted with Sb atoms to form a ferromagnetic compound, MnSb, at the interface. The MnSb layers grow epitaxially on thick Sb layers. By utilizing this epitaxy, ultrathin (less than 10 A) MnSb layers can be sandwiched between thick (50 Ã…) Sb layers. The resulting superlattice films are ferromagnetic even when each MnSb layer thickness is less than 5 Ã….
