Abstract

The effect of electron confinement in ultrathin layered magnetic systems is discussed. This leads to quantum size eflects which can be observed by photoemission in overlayers. In magnetic multilayers, spectacular oscillatory behavior of the interlayer exchange coupling results from the electron confinement. The quantum size effects manifest themselves also in the magneto-optical properties of ultrathin films.
