Abstract
We report on the magnetotransport properties of Co2Cr0.6Fe0.4Al mixed with insulating Al2O3. The powder compacts show a maximum magnetoresistance of 88% at a saturation moment of 0.125 T at 295 K. Different explanations for the reversible mechanism will be discussed, such as tunneling between contiguous ferromagnetic grains, particle movement, and magnetostriction. The effect in Co2Cr0.6Fe0.4Al/Al2O3 powder compacts is the largest room temperature magnetoresistance that has been measured until now.
