    Over the past four years, the magnetism of 2-D magnets has been extensively studied by the full arsenal of probing techniques. Two-dimensional magnets can be incorporated to form heterostructures with clean and sharp interfaces, which gives rise to exotic phenomena as a result of the interfacial proximity effect. Here, we report a detailed study of the spin (<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">m_{s} </tex-math></inline-formula>) and orbital (<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">m_{l} </tex-math></inline-formula>) moments of an epitaxial (CrSb/Fe 3 GeTe 2 ) 6 superlattice. The synchrotron-radiation-based X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) technique was performed to probe the microscopic magnetic properties of the superlattices in an elemental resolved manner. We unambiguously obtained a bulk-like moment of Fe 3 GeTe 2 , i.e., <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">m_{s} = 1.58~\mu _{\text {B}}/\text {Fe} \pm 0.2~\mu _{\text {B}} </tex-math></inline-formula>/Fe and <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">m_{l} = 0.22~\mu _{\text {B}}/\text {Fe} \pm 0.02~\mu _{\text {B}} </tex-math></inline-formula>/Fe. Future works to explore the tuning of the spin-polarized band structure of 2-D ferromagnetic superlattices will be of great interest and can have strong implications for both fundamental physics and the emerging spintronics technology.
