摘要:
A magnetoresistive device includes a magnetoresistive film and a pair of electrodes for applying a sense current substantially perpendicularly to the magnetoresistive film. The magnetoresistive film includes a magnetization pinned film including a first ferromagnetic layer having a magnetization direction substantially pinned in one direction, a magnetization free film including a second ferromagnetic layer whose magnetization direction changes in accordance with an external magnetic field applied thereto, an intermediate layer formed between the magnetization pinned film and the magnetization free film and having an insulating film and a metal conduction portion extending in the film thickness direction of the insulating film, and a layer containing an electrovalent or covalent compound formed near the metal conduction portion.

A magnetoresistive element includes a magnetoresistive film having a magnetization pinned layer, a magnetization free layer, and a nonmagnetic intermediate layer. A magnetization direction of the magnetization pinned layer is substantially fixed in an external magnetic field, a magnetization direction of the magnetization free layer is configured to change in the external magnetic field, and the nonmagnetic intermediate layer formed between the magnetization pinned layer and the magnetization free layer and has a stacked structure of a first non-metallic intermediate layer/a metal intermediate layer/a second non-metallic intermediate layer. The magnetoresistive element also includes a pair of electrodes coupled to the magnetoresistive film and is configured to provide a current in a direction substantially perpendicular to a surface of the magnetoresistive film.

摘要:
A current perpendicular to plane type magnetoresistive device has a magnetoresistive film, a pair of electrodes which allow a sense current to flow through the magnetoresistive film in a perpendicular direction to the plane thereof, and a biasing film which imparts a biasing magnetic field to the magnetoresistive film in a parallel direction to film plane. The direction of the magnetic field generated by the sense current flowing through the magnetoresistive film in the perpendicular direction to film plane is made substantially anti-parallel to the direction of the biasing magnetic field in a vicinity of a portion of the magnetoresistive film where a signal magnetic flux is introduced.
