Description

Magnetic ultrathin Langmuir-Blodgett films containing rare earths are investigated. Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements suggest the possible existence of a transition from a paramagnetic to a magnetically ordered state. In Langmuir-Blodgett films with one hundred layers of Gd, a transition takes place at T0∼490K. copyright 1997 The American Physical Society
