Abstract
We study an (l, n) finite superlattice, which consists of two alternative m agnetic materials(components) of I and n atomic layers, respectively. Based on the Ising model, we examine the phase transition properties of the magn etic superlattice. By transfer matrix method we derive the equation for Cur ie temperature of the superlattice. Numerical results are obtained for the dependence of Curie temperature on the thickness and exchange constants of the superlattice.
