  The magnetic properties of Fe/Ag granular multilayers were examined by SQUID
magnetization and Mossbauer spectroscopy measurements. Very thin (0.2 nm)
discontinuous Fe layers show superparamagnetic properties that can be tailored
by the thickness of both the magnetic and the spacer layers. The role of
magnetic interactions was studied in novel heterostructures of
superparamagnetic and ferromagnetic layers and the specific contribution of the
ferromagnetic layers to the low field magnetic susceptibility was identified.
