EN

The results of calculation of the indirect exchange interaction between magnetic layers are presented for the case of a structure with narrow-gap semiconducting IV-VI quantum well. The main mechanism is a magnetic polarization of the size-quantized electrons and holes inside the well. This type of interaction is suggested for the explanation of recent experiments on EuS/PbS structures.
