Abstract
This review is devoted to an analysis of the electrical resistance, the magnetoresistance, and the anomalous Hall effect in magnetic “ferromagnetic metal–insulator” nanocomposites at a metal content near the percolation threshold and the memristive properties of the capacitor structures based on these nanocomposites. A high content (up to 1022 cm–3) of dispersed atoms in intergranular gaps leads to a logarithmic temperature dependence of the electrical resistance, a positive contribution to the magnetoresistance, the appearance of tunneling anomalous Hall effect, and a multifilament mechanism of resistive switching (which causes an adaptive character of memristor nanocomposites with dispersed atoms).
