Abstract
A model is proposed for exchange coupling between ferromagnetic metal layers through a nondegenerate semiconductor interlayer with point defects. The asymptotics of the exchange integrals is calculated. It is shown that the interlayer exchange can reverse sign depending on the position and occupation of impurity states in the interlayer. The results provide a qualitative explanation of the experimental data obtained for iron/silicon multilayers.
