Abstract
AbstractIn this paper detailed theoretical study and experimental results concerning acoustic surface and undersurface propagation modes in multilayered Co/Cu superlattices are provided. The theoretical approach was adopted from that of Adler and Farnel. Experimental results were obtained in Brillouin light-scattering measurements. The Sezawa and Love acoustic modes were observed as a result of boundary conditions at the interface between hexagonal and cubic structures.
