The fabrication and structural characterization of metallic superlattices is discussed. Methods to determine the elastic properties of these materials (which can only be prepared as thin films) are reviewed and the results obtained using various techniques are summarized. Contrary to theoretical expectation, the elastic properties are found to depend on the modulation wavelength. 52 refs., 6 figs.
