Studies are reported of the upper critical fields of Nbo.53Tio.47-Ge multilayers consisting of thick Ge layers and varying-thickness Nbo.s3Tio.47 layers. Both the angular dependence and the temperature dependence of the upper critical fields indicate a dimensional crossover at a Nbo.s3Tio.47 layer thickness near 200 ~ . All the 2D samples display a cusplike upper critical field angular dependen...
