Problems solved by technology

Nevertheless, in order for the output signal to have a linear relationship with the external magnetic field, the directions of the pinning layers of two of the four spin-valve elements in the bridge-type magnetic sensor designed by Daughton et al. The direction of the top tie layer is opposite. In order to achieve this purpose, some of the manufacturing processes use the current bias method, some use the permanent magnet bias method, and some use the secondary deposition method. These preparation processes are more complicated and increase It increases the difficulty of making the sensor, and more importantly, it is difficult to guarantee the consistency of the product

Embodiment Construction

[0014] like figure 2 As shown, the fabrication method of the junction linear magnetic field sensor: replace the mask in situ in the main sputtering chamber when depositing the non-magnetic layer, that is, use the mask to block the holes of the non-magnetic layer on the first and third tunnel junctions 1 and 3 during deposition. Sputtering causes the thickness of the nonmagnetic layer on the first and third tunnel junctions 1 and 3 to be thinner, and then removes the mask and sputters the rest of the tunnel junction materials.

[0015] like figure 1 As shown, the sensors with non-magnetic layers with different thicknesses prepared by the above method include: a film base and 4 tunnel junctions formed on the film base, wherein the first and third tunnel junctions 1 and 3 are exactly the same, and the first and third tunnel junctions are exactly the same. 2 and 4 tunnel junctions 2 and 4 are exactly the same, the thickness of the non-magnetic layer of the 1st and 3rd tunnel jun...

Abstract

The invention offers a kind of tunnel junction linear magnetic sensor and its product method: while depositing non-magnetic layer change mask in place inside main sputter cavity. That is masking the sputter of non-magnetic in 1,3 spin valve or 2,4 spin valve which will make the non-magnetic thinner or thicker. After that take away the mask and sputter other park of the spin valve. The invention can make the spinning layer of the two of four spin valve component inside bridge-style magnetic sensor reverse from the other two. That means, it doesn't need to set current bias method and permanent bias method. It can simplify preparation processing and efficiently increase the compatibility of the production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sensing device and a manufacturing method thereof, in particular to a digital magnetic field sensor with a tunnel junction resistance element or a giant magnetoresistance element and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] One of the technical problems that must be overcome in linear magnetic sensors is how to make the output signal linear in relation to the external magnetic field. The most widely used linear magnetic field sensor is the Hall magnetic field sensor, which is based on the Hall effect. Its material properties The inherent characteristic of the sensor is that the output signal has a linear relationship with the external magnetic field, but the output signal of the Hall magnetic field sensor to a weak magnetic field is very small, so it is generally used to sense a larger magnetic field in the range of 100 to 1000 Oersted (Oe). This kind of MR magnetic field sensor is based on the anisotropi...
