    摘要: A CPP giant magnetoresistive head includes lower and upper shield layers with a predetermined distance therebetween, and a giant magnetoresistive element (GMR) including pinned and free magnetic layers disposed between the upper and lower shield layers with a nonmagnetic layer interposed between the pinned and free magnetic layers. A current flows perpendicularly to the film plane of the GMR. The magnetoresistive head further includes an antiferromagnetic layer (an insulating AF of Ni—O or α-Fe2O3) provided in the rear of the GMR in a height direction to make contact with the upper or lower surface of a rear portion of the pinned magnetic layer which extends in the height direction, and an exchange coupling magnetic field is produced at the interface with the upper or lower surface, so that the magnetization direction of the pinned magnetic layer is pinned by the exchange coupling magnetic field in the height direction.

    摘要: A current sensor including a magnetic detecting bridge circuit which is constituted of four magneto-resistance effect elements with a resistance value varied by application of an induced magnetic field from a current to be measured, and which has an output between two magneto-resistance effect elements. The four magneto-resistance effect elements have the same resistance change rate, and include a self-pinned type ferromagnetic fixed layer which is formed by anti-ferromagnetically coupling a first ferromagnetic film and a second ferromagnetic film via an antiparallel coupling film therebetween, a nonmagnetic intermediate layer, and a soft magnetic free layer. Magnetization directions of the ferromagnetic fixed layers of the two magneto-resistance effect elements providing the output are different from each other by 180°. The magnetic detecting bridge circuit has wiring symmetrical to a power supply point.

    摘要: A magnetic detection element capable of maintaining the ΔRA at a high level and reducing the magnetostriction by improving a material for a free magnetic layer, as well as a method for manufacturing the same, is provided. The free magnetic layer includes a laminate composed of a CoMnX alloy layer formed from a metal compound represented by a compositional formula CoaMnbXc (where X represents at least one of Ge, Ga, In, Si, Pb, Zn, and Sb and a+b+c=100 atomic percent) and a CoMnZ alloy layer formed from a metal compound represented by a compositional formula CodMneZf (where Z represents at least one of Sn and Al and d+e+f=100 atomic percent). In this manner, the magnetostriction of the free magnetic layer can be reduced.
