Abstract
In this paper we are interested in the magnetic properties of Mn/Cu/Mn and Mn/Ni/Mn slabs as a function of Mn coverage at T = 0 K. A tight-b inding parametrized Hamiltonian with s, p and d orbitals is used and t he appearance of spillover is accounted for by enlarging the local bas is at the surface and vacancy sites. Large magnetic moments on the Mn atoms and competing ferro and antiferromagnetic configurations are obt ained.
