A low-temperature (0.04 < T < 2 K), low-magnetic-field (B < 300 mT) transport study of GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs wires shows giant negative magnetoresistance, induced by reducing T, confirming one-dimensional localization. The magnetoresistance is described by R(TB) = R0 + R1(T) + R2(T)/[1 + (B/DELTAB)2], and the T-dependent terms exhibit power laws, R1(T) approximately T-1/2 and R2(T) approximately T-1, characteristic of electron interaction and quantum interference effects, respectively. At the lowest T, R1(T) and R2(T) saturate to a T-independent value indicating that the effective wire length may not be increased further by reducing T, below T(c). The results demonstrate a temperature-induced dimensional crossover, from D = 1 to 0, in GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs quantum wires.
