Abstract
We report a number of unusual features in the temperature dependence o f the resistance and the magnetoresistance of nanogranular Co-Ag films at low; temperatures. These include a nonmonotonic temperature depend ence of the resistance in a nonmagnetized state, anomalously low expon ents in the power-law temperature dependence of the resistivity (down to rho(proportional to)T(1.1)) at high magnetic field, and almost line ar temperature dependence of the giant magnetoresistance with no satur ation at low temperature.
