Abstract

Superlattices of Au-Cr, with Au:Cr=2:l have been prepared. Their electrical resistivities have been measured between 0.3-300 K. Whereas simple ρ-T behavior was found forλ = 30, 51, 90 and 150 Å, complicated behavior, similar to magnetic ordering is found for λ = 45 Å. No correlation is observed with the extremum wavelength for phonon velocities - a maximum occurs at 75 Å - unlike that found for most metallic superlattics.
