Epitaxial Co/Cr(001) superlattices were prepared by Molecular-Beam-Epitaxy (MBE). The crystal structure was determined both with Reflection High Energy Electron Diffraction (RHEED) and x-ray diffraction experiments. The Co layers grow in an hcp phase with their (11.0) planes oriented parallel to the Cr(001) planes. The magnetic anisotropy was measured using the Magneto-optical Kerr Effect (MOKE) and Ferromagnetic Resonance (FMR) technique. It is found that the easy axis of the magnetization is perpendicular to the film plane below a Co thickness of about 14 Å. The value of the interface anisotropy constant Ks is determined to (0.85±0.1)erg/cm2 assuming the bulk magnetization of hcp Co.
