Observation of coherent electron motion in disordered granular metals — •Michael Huth, Dirk Klingenberger, and Christina Grimm — Physikalisches Institut, Goethe-Universität, D-60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany

We observed a σ ∝ √T-dependence of the electrical conductivity σ vs. temperature T in metal-insulator nanocomposite samples prepared by electron beam induced deposition. This dependence was recently predicted as a low-energy contribution in the metallic regime of 3D granular metals if electron-electron interactions are taken into account¹. It is the consequence of the occurence of a large-scale coherent electron motion and signifies a universal resistive behavior in granular metals even in the presence of disorder.
