- Samples of the composition RE$\text{}_{x}$Co$\text{}_{20}$Cu$\text{}_{80-x}$, RE = Sm, Gd or Dy (x = 0, 1, and 3) were produced by melt-spinning and subsequent annealing. The magnetoresistance is negative as in granular Co-Cu, but its values depend on the kind of rare earth element added and on changes in the microstructure induced by thermal annealing. An addition of 1 at.% rare earth metal to Co$\text{}_{20}$Cu$\text{}_{80}$ yields a considerable increase in the magnetoresistance ratio, whereas an addition of 3 at.% causes a decrease. E.g., by addition of 1 at.% Dy to Co$\text{}_{20}$Cu$\text{}_{80}$ and optimal thermal treatment, the value of magnetoresistance ratio measured at 10 K in a field of 5 T increases from -14% to -28%. The effect can be attributed to the presence of clusters of hexagonal Dy(Co,Cu)$\text{}_{5}$, which was ascertained from X-ray diffraction data, or other, metastable rare-earth compounds and paramagnetic rare-earth atoms in the Cu matrix.
