摘要： According to the present invention on a magnetoresistance device having a magnetoresistance effect element, since iron oxide FeO.sub.x exhibiting antiferromagnetism is used as a pinning layer, a spin-valve type magnetoresistance effect element can be obtained which is particularly excellent in corrosion resistance and has a magnetoresistance ratio with an MR slope no less than 0.7% Oe in the region of the high-frequency magnetic field of 1 MHz. Further, the rise-up characteristic of an MR curve at the zero magnetic field is extremely excellent with small hysteresis, and it has high heat resistance. The heat resistance is further improved by interposing an oxygen blocking layer between the pinning layer and a ferromagnetic layer. In the magnetoresistance device, for example, an MR head, using the magnetoresistance effect element having a magnetic multilayer film, an output voltage is approximately five times as high as that of the conventional material. Accordingly, there can be provided an excellent MR head which has extremely high reliability and enables the reading for ultrahigh density magnetic recording exceeding 1 Gbit/inch.sup.2.

摘要： In a magnetoresistance multilayer film comprising at least two magnetic layers on a substrate, with a nonmagnetic layer intervening between the magnetic layers, each interface between the magnetic layer and the nonmagnetic layer is corrugated in both X and Y directions of a substrate major surface. The corrugations of the interface are formed by providing the substrate surface with a multiplicity of asperities distributed in both X and Y directions and depositing magnetic layers and nonmagnetic layers thereon. The film shows a linear rise of MR change in an applied magnetic field within a very low range of 0 to about 40 Oe.

摘要： A carburetor fuel adjusting device that facilitates control of the quantity of fuel that flows from the fuel chamber to an air intake port of a carburetor by making it possible for the user to adjust an adjustment valve within the limits defined by emission control regulations. The carburetor fuel adjusting device has a cap having two appendages to limit its turning in the lean mixture direction and in the rich mixture direction, and an engagement area to engage a valve extension of the fuel adjustment valves of a carburetor. The valve extensions are inserted through insertion holes of a retainer attached to the carburetor body. When the cap is retained by the retainer in a disengaged position, wherein the engagement area is not attached to the valve extensions of the fuel adjustment valves, the adjustment valves can be adjusted separately from the cap. The cap, however, can be moved forward to an engaged position wherein the engagement area of the cap becomes attached to the valve extensions. In the engaged position, the adjustment valves can be turned in unison with the cap within a range formed by the angle between the appendages which, when rotated, abut against stoppers.

摘要： A method for manufacturing a magnetic sensor that result in improved magnetic bias field to the sensor, improved shield to hard bias spacing and a flatter top shield profile. The method includes a multi-angled deposition of the hard bias structure. After forming the sensor stack a first hard bias layer is deposited at an angle of about 70 degrees relative to horizontal. This is a conformal deposition. Then, a second deposition is performed at an angle of about 90 degrees relative to horizontal. This is a notching deposition, that results in notches being formed adjacent to the sensor stack. Then, a hard bias capping layer is deposited at an angle of about 55 degrees relative to horizontal. This is a leveling deposition that further flattens the surface on which the top shield can be electroplated.

摘要： A magnetic read sensor having improved robustness to withstand thermal variations resulting from thermal fly height heating. Improved thermal robustness comes as a result of improved pinned layer pinning. The read head includes an AFM layer having an increased thickness to provide a higher blocking temperature. The read head further includes a pinned layer structure that includes a first magnetic layer adjacent to and exchange coupled with the AFM layer. The first layer comprises a Co—Fe layer with an increased Fe content of 20-30 atomic percent. The pinned layer structure also includes a second magnetic layer that is antiparallel coupled with the AP1 layer. The AP2 layer can be a multi-layer structure that includes a layer of CoFe, a layer of Co—Fe—Hf formed on the layer of Co—Fe, a layer of Co—Fe—B formed on the layer of Co—Fe—Hf, and a second layer of Co—Fe formed on the layer of Co—Fe—B.

摘要： A method for fabricating magnetic side shields for an MR sensor of a magnetic head. Following the deposition of MR sensor layers, a first DLC layer is deposited. Milling mask layers are then deposited, and outer portions of the milling mask layers are removed such that a remaining central portion of the milling mask layers is formed having straight sidewalls and no undercuts. Outer portions of the sensor layers are then removed such that a relatively thick remaining central portion of the milling mask resides above the remaining sensor layers. A thin electrical insulation layer is deposited, followed by the deposition of magnetic side shields. A second DLC layer is deposited and the remaining mask layers are then removed utilizing a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) liftoff step. Thereafter, the first DLC layer and the second DLC layer are removed and a second magnetic shield layer is then fabricated thereabove.

摘要： A current-perpendicular-to-the-plane (CPP) magnetoresistive (MR) read head structure has the MR read head located between first and second shields (S1, S2) on a substrate with a shunt resistor R1 connecting S1 to the substrate and a shunt resistor R2 connecting S2 to the substrate, with R1 and R2 being approximately equal. Because R1 and R2 are close enough in value there is no significant interference pickup in the low frequency region. The shunt resistors can be formed from high-resistivity metal nitrides or cermets. The spacing between the substrate and S1 may be selected to make the capacitance between S1 and the substrate approximately equal to the capacitance between S2 and the substrate to substantially reduce interference pickup in the high frequency region. Equalization conductors (EC1, EC2) may be connected to the substrate and spaced from S2 and S1, respectively, by electrically insulating material to create additional capacitances with values selected to substantially equalize the total parasitic capacitance on S2 with the total parasitic capacitance on S1.
