Abstract
The effect of the asymmetry of modulation and the irregularities in the layer thicknesses on the Curie temperature of the finite magnetic superlattice is studied. It is found that the asymmetry modifies the dependence of TC on the structural characteristics of superlattice. Moreover, the Curie temperature is sensitive to the presence of the irregularities, especially in superlattices with modulation profiles dominated by weakly magnetized layers.
