Overview

abstract

• The phase transitions in ultrathin Ising films are studied within the mean field approximation. Analytic expressions for the thickness dependence of the Curie temperature are given. The model is applied to estimate the magnetic interactions in Fe and Gd ultrathin films. The experimental results in the case of Fe films on Au substrates can be very well reproduced. © 1990.
