摘要:
A magnetoresistive head has a magnetoresistive film including first and second magnetization free layers, an intermediate layer sandwiched between the first and second magnetization free layers, an underlayer and a protective layer, a first electrode, a second electrode, a pair of first antiferromagnetic films, and a pair of second antiferromagnetic films. The first electrode is connected with the underlayer and the second electrode is connected with the protective layer, the electrodes allowing a current to flow in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the magnetoresistive film. The pair of first antiferromagnetic films imparts a magnetic bias to the first magnetization free layer in a predetermined direction, and the pair of second antiferromagnetic films imparts a magnetic bias to the second magnetization free layer in a predetermined direction.
摘要:
A magnetoresistive head has a magnetoresistive film including first and second magnetization free layers, an intermediate layer sandwiched between the first and second magnetization free layers, an underlayer and a protective layer, which are stacked in the order of the underlayer, the first magnetization free layer, the intermediate layer, the second magnetization free layer and the protective layer and arranged to be substantially perpendicular to the air-bearing surface, and a first electrode connected with the underlayer and a second electrode connected with the protective layer, the electrodes allowing a current to flow in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane. Each magnetization direction of the first and second magnetization free layers is allowed to vary independently in response to a signal magnetic flux from a medium. The first and second magnetization free layers produce a magnetoresistance effect in accordance with the magnetization directions thereof.

摘要:
In a spin valve type element, an interface insertion layer (32, 34) of a material exhibiting large spin-dependent interface scattering is inserted in a location of a magnetically pinned layer (16) or a magnetically free layer (20) closer to a nonmagnetic intermediate layer (18). A nonmagnetic back layer (36) may be additionally inserted as an interface not in contact with the nonmagnetic intermediate layer to increase the output by making use of spin-dependent interface scattering along the interface between the pinned layer and the nonmagnetic back layer or between the free layer and the nonmagnetic back layer.
