摘要：

Recent progress in the theory of interlayer exchange coupling is presented. The interlayer coupling is described in terms of quantum interferences in the spacer layer, due to reflections of Bloch waves on the spacer boundaries. This approach is used to discuss (i) the coupling variation with respect to ferromagnetic layers thickness, and (ii) the coupling across a nonmetallic spacer layer.
