AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When forming sensor elements on an inclined surface, existing technologies struggle to achieve high-precision shape control, especially near the end of the inclined surface of the sensor, where the flow of photoresist leads to insufficient precision in the formation of metal films or magnetoresistive elements.

Method used

The support component comprises a flat portion and an inclined surface to support the sensor element, wherein at least one protrusion has multiple recesses to ensure precise positioning and shape control of the sensor element on the inclined surface.

Benefits of technology

This improved the shape accuracy of the sensor element on the inclined surface, thereby enhancing the sensor's sensitivity and detection accuracy.

Abstract

A sensor includes an insulating layer including a flat portion and a protruding portion, a first MR element, and a second MR element. The protruding portion has a first inclined surface and a second inclined surface. The first MR element is disposed on the first inclined surface. The second MR element is disposed on the second inclined surface. The protruding portion extends in a first direction parallel to an upper surface of a substrate, and end portions of the first direction included in the protruding portion are respectively recessed in a plurality of recesses recessed in a direction parallel to the upper surface of the substrate.
