40. 19 multilayer samples are, for example, only slightly inferior to those of sputtered Fe/Cr multilayers, for which an epitaxial quality similar to that of molecular beam epitaxy grown films has been stated (E.E. Fullerton, M.J. Conover, I.E. Mattson, C.H. Sowers, S.D. Bader, Phys. Rev. B 48 (1993) 15755).
