Indirect exchange coupling in magnetic multilayers, also known as the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction, is known to be highly effective in controlling the interlayer alignment of the magnetization. This coupling is typically…

We derive a generalization of the RKKY interaction to semiconductors using perturbation theory on a non-degenerated two-impurity Anderson model. In metals the interaction is mediated by excitations of free carriers over the Fermi-energy. In…
