Abstract
The growth by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) of ultrathin layer II-VI compound semiconductors with magnetic constituents has opened new possibilities in the study of both lower dimensional electronic and magnetic phenomena. Some aspects of the latter are presented here with the zincblende MnSe/ZnSe superlattice as the test system. Initial indicators suggest that interfaces play a key role in determining the magnetic character of the heterostructure.
