T. Sugawara et al., APPEARANCE OF GMR ON ANNEALING IN CU-CO GRANULAR ALLOYS WITH HIGH CO CONCENTRATION, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 177, 1998, pp. 951-952
We have investigated the magnetoresistance ((MR) behavior on annealing
Cu-Co films sputter deposited on cooled substrates. The MR behavior o
n annealing shows a clear contrast between the Co concentrations (a) l
ower and higher than the magnetic percolation threshold (x(c) approxim
ate to 25 at%). For x > x(c), anisotropic MR as seen in simple ferroma
gnets changes into giant MR on annealing. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.
