Abstract
Mössbauer spectroscopy is applied to study the magnetism and the local structure of Fe/Ru superlattices. Fe Layers show hcp structure, isomorphous with Ru. A well-defined symmetry is observed at Fe sites, withV zz along thec axis. The Fe/Ru interfaces are non-magnetic over the two first layers, but a large moment (2μB/Fe) exists beyond. Magnetic coupling between neighbouring Fe Layers is observed at small spacing, i.e. for Ru thickness lower than 13 Å typically.
