Abstract

The invention discloses a magnetic nano-multilayers structure and the method for making it. The multilayer film includes-sequentially from one end to the other end-a substrate, a bottom layer, a magnetic reference layer, a space layer, a magnetic detecting layer and a cap layer. The, up-stated structure is for convert the information of the rotation of the magnetic moment of the magnetic detecting layer into electrical signals. The magnetic detecting layer is of a pinning structure to react to the magnetic field under detection. On the other hand, the invention sandwiches an intervening layer between the AFM and the FM to mitigate the pinning effect from the exchange bias. Moreover, the thickness of the intervening layer is adjustable to control the pinning effect from the exchange bias. The controllability ensures that the magnetic moments of the magnetic reference layer and the magnetic detecting layer remain at right angles to each other when the external field is zero. The invention achieves a GMR or TMR magnetic sensor exhibiting a linear response and by tuning the thickness of the non-magnetic metallic layer, the sensitivity as well as the detecting range of the devices can be tuned easily.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of spintronics materials and magnetic sensitive sensors, in particular relates to a magnetic nano multi-layer film used for magnetic sensitive sensors and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Magnetic sensors have broad and important application prospects in various fields such as data storage, mechanical positioning, speed detection, and non-destructive detection. Early magneto-sensitive sensors were mainly prepared based on semiconductor materials with Hall effect and magnetic materials with magnetic anisotropy magnetoresistance (AMR) effect, but these two types of materials have low magnetic field sensitivity. With the development of spintronics, magnetic sensors based on giant magnetoresistance effect and tunneling magnetoresistance effect have been widely studied and applied. The main reason is that the magnetic field sensitivity of these two types of magnetosensitive sensors is high, an...
