Au-197 Mossbauer spectra have been measured for Au/Ni artificial multi
layers. From the area ratio in a spectrum from a multilayer component
and a component rising from pure Au buffer layer and its temperature d
ependence from 16 to 75 K, it is found that the Debye-Waller factor of
Au in Au(10 angstrom)/Ni(10 angstrom) is larger than that of bulk Au,
suggesting the existence of a supermodulus effect in this multilayer.
