The main reason behind the emergence of magnetic ordering with SDWs is the redistribution of charge (and, hence, spin) density in the vicinity of Fe/Cr interfaces, which leads to the paramagnetic phase instability at a temperature considerably higher than the Neel temperature in chromium. The Ginzburg-Landau expansion for the free energy of the system is used for determining the inhomogeneous collinear structures of CDWs and for constructing the phase diagram (the dependence of the transition temperature on the thickness of the antiferromagnetic interlayer). The obtained results are used for discussing the experimental data on neutron scattering and tunnel microscopy. (C) 2001 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
