“…1 They are represented, e.g., by discontinuous metal-insulator multilayers ͑DMIMs͒ that resemble frozen ferrofluids to a large extent. 2,3 Due to magnetic interparticle interactions, e.g., of dipolar or tunneling exchange origin, different kinds of collective behavior are encountered, viz. modified superparamagnetism, 4 superspin glass ͑SSG͒ behavior, 5 or superferromagnetism ͑SFM͒.…”

“…Ferromagnetic metal-based DMIMs show moderate room-temperature ͑RT͒ tunneling magnetoresistance ͑TMR͒ that originates from spin-dependent tunneling between adjacent metallic granules. [1][2][3][4][5] Significant lowfield sensitivity in the current-in-plane ͑CIP͒ configuration and relative ease of preparation make DMIMs promising materials for sensors and read heads. 3 Although DMIMs were actively studied during the past decade, only structures with amorphous insulator layers have been prepared so far by different groups ͑see for instance Ref.…”

“…Whereas many studies were made on spin-dependent tunneling and magnetoresistance in DMIM, e.g., [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] only few applied the CPP configuration, where the gap in the tunneling conductance can be observed at low temperature. Sankar et al 27 measured the transport properties of CoFe/HfO 2 multilayers with 20 bilayers.…”
