This book focuses on an increasingly important area of materials science and technology, namely, the fabrication and properties of artificial materials where slabs of magnetized materials are sandwiched between slabs of nonmagnetized materials. It includes reviews by experts on the theory and descriptions of the various experimental techniques such as those using nuclear or electron spin probes, as well as optical, X-ray or neutron probes. It also reviews potential applications such as the giant magnetoresistance, and one specialized preparation technique, the electrodeposition. The various chapters are tutorial in nature, making the subject accessible to nonspecialists, as well as useful to researchers in the field.

This Workshop addresses the role of magnetic interactions in the various aspects of high Tc superconducting materials, including the fundamental nature of the elementary excitations and their effect on the measured microscopic and macroscopic magnetic properties of these materials. Applications involving the magnetic behaviour of high Tc superconductors is a special feature of this Workshop.
