Abstract

The theory of superconductivity in metallic superlattices under an anisotropic dispersion law of electrons is constructed. It is shown that with progressive anisotropization of the superlattice, the superconducting critical parameters sharply increase. This fact is explained by the supression of the proximity effect in this system due to electron slowing-down along the direction perpendicular to the layers.
