Problems solved by technology

At the same time, the shunting effect of the seed layer and the protective layer is also more obvious. At this time, it is difficult for the thin film material to maintain a good magnetoresistance change rate (ΔR/R) and magnetic field sensitivity (S v )
In order to ensure that the ultra-thin NiFe film has a larger magnetoresistance change rate and higher magnetic field sensitivity to meet the needs of magnetic sensors, etc., in the literature W.Y.Lee, M.Toney, P.Tameerug, E.Allen and D. Mauri, J.Appl.Phys.87, 6992 (2000) proposed to use (Ni 0.81 Fe 0.19 ) 1-x Cr x or Ni 1-x Cr x Ni prepared as a seed layer 0.81 Fe 0.19 film, its AMR value is higher than that of Ni with Ta as the seed layer 0.81 Fe 0.19 The AMR value of the film has been significantly improved. For example, the AMR value of the 12nm thick NiFe film has reached 3.2%.
In the literature H.Funaki, S.Okamoto, O.Kitakami, and Y.Shimada, Jpn.J.Appl.Phys., Part 233, L1304 (1994), it is proposed that the use of annealing can significantly improve the ΔR/ R value, such as 20nm thick Permalloy thin film, after annealing at 400°C, the ΔR/R value can reach 3.5%, but t

[0021] Magnetic thin films were prepared in a magnetron sputtering apparatus. Firstly, the single crystal Si(001) substrate is ultrasonically cleaned with organic chemical solvent and deionized water, and then placed on the sample base of the sputtering chamber. The substrate is cooled with circulating water, and a magnetic field of 250 Oe is applied parallel to the direction of the substrate. Sputtering chamber background vacuum 4×10 -5Pa, NiFeCr ( ) / (MgO ) / Ni 80 Fe 20 ( ) / (MgO ) / Au( ).

Abstract

The invention discloses an ultra-high sensitive magneto-resistance film material and a preparation method thereof, and relates to magnetic film material. The film material has the structure of a buffer layer/MgO /NiFe /MgO/ protection layer; and then, high temperature annealing is carried out in magnetic field. The material with the structure has high magnetic field sensitivity, and a magnetic sensing element processed by the material also has high magnetic field sensitivity. The method mainly has the advantages that the material has simple structure and design, and obviously improves the magnetic field sensitivity which is basically equivalent to the magnetic field sensitivity of tunnel magneto-resistance (TMR) film materials and corresponding elements; meanwhile, in the original material system technique, when the NiFe layer is thinner, the phenomenon of 'magnetic dead layer' caused by solid phase reaction at the film interface of material or a device which is processed at certain temperature can be overcome; therefore, the material can be used for making a high sensitive magneto-resistance sensing component.
