Abstract
The relation between the interlayer exchange coupling and magnetic order is addressed, using Fe/V(0Â 0Â 1) superlattices as a model system. Large decrease in the ordering temperature (Tc) is observed with decreasing interlayer exchange coupling. The effective exponents of the magnetization were determined to be larger than 0.5 for all the samples, which is strongly deviating from the classical values of both two- and three-dimensional systems. This effect can partially be ascribed to the presence of boundaries, invoked by the finite number of magnetic layers.
