Molecular beam epitaxy has been used to produce single-crystal superlattices of alternating dysprosium and yttrium layers with thicknesses comparable to the intrinsic magnetic periodicity of Dy. The superlattices exhibit a feature in the bulk magnetization corresponding to the spiral-phase transition in Dy, but no ferromagnetic transition. Rather, zero-field-cooled data show a broad maximum that is not observed on field cooling. The position of the maximum depends on yttrium layer thickness. These results are discussed in terms of an interruption of the spiral by the non-magnetic layers.
