Abstract
We discuss magnetic superlatices composed of ferromagnetic films with either ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic coupling at the interfaces. For ferromagnetic coupling, the low temperature behaviour of the magnetization as a function of film thickness depends critically on the strength of the interface coupling constant. For antiferromagnetic coupling we calculate the spin wave excitation spectrum and relate this to a macroscopic ferromagnet.
