Abstract
Neutron diffraction studies of MBE-grown (111) EuTe/PbTe superlattices are reported. The EuTe layers exhibit an AF structure consisting of a ntiferromagnetically coupled (111) spin sheets. The data reveal interl ayer magnetic coupling accross PbTe spacers with surprisingly large th icknesses (up to 55 Angstrom), despite the low carrier concentration w hich rules out any significant RKKY interactions.
