The relationship between the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and the nano-granular structure of (Fe, Co)/Al2O3 films prepared by a tandem deposition method was examined. The structure of the films was controlled by changing the rotation speed of a substrate holder. In this way, the size of the metallic granules in the film was changed independently of the film composition. In the case of Fe/Al2O3 films, the average diameter of a metallic granule decreased from 2.5 to 1.5 nm with an increase in the rotation speed of the substrate holder. On the other hand, the width of the Al oxide boundary among metallic granules was estimated to be about 0.5-1 nm. The MR ratio increased with a decrease in the size of the metal granules. So-called coulomb blockade effect is discussed the influence of the granule size on the MR ratio.
