Description

The magnetic structure has been measured with neutron scattering and SQUID magnetometry for a number of epitaxial multilayers and films of the magnetic rare-earths dysprosium and erbium grown with non-magnetic yttrium. In almost all cases the first order ferromagnetic phase transitions are suppressed, although the Neel temperatures are within 5% of the bulk values. The observed critical fields are explained by including epitaxial constraints with the bulk theory of magnetoelasticity
