V. Madurga et al., SUPERPARAMAGNETISM AND ANTIFERROMAGNETIC COUPLING IN GIANT MAGNETORESISTIVE NANOCRYSTALLIZED MELT-SPUN CU92CO8 RIBBONS, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 144, 1995, pp. 465-466
Melt-spun ribbons of Cu92Co8 are found to exhibit giant magnetoresista
nce with a maximum of 17% at 5 K. Magnetization curves at different te
mperatures indicate that GMR is due to superparamagnetism of the nanoc
rystallized fee Go-rich clusters, and give negative values of the temp
erature of order Theta in a Langevin law fit.
