摘要:
A magnetic film forming apparatus can form a magnetic film, especially a magnetic alloy film, selectively on a metal surface exposed on a surface of a substrate, such as a semiconductor wafer. The magnetic film forming apparatus comprises an electroless plating apparatus having a magnetic field generation apparatus for generating a magnetic field around and parallel to a substrate disposed such that the surface of the substrate is in contact with a plating solution in a plating tank.

A magnetic thin film element is provided with a magnetoresistive film including a first magnetic layer composed of a perpendicular magnetization film, a second magnetic layer composed of a perpendicular magnetization film having a higher coercive force than that of the first magnetic layer, and a nonmagenetic layer interposed between the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer. The resistance of the magnetoresistive film varies depending on whether or not the magnetic spins of the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer are in the same direction.

A magnetic head with a spin valve effect MR element and a method of manufacturing the head. A plurality of spin valve effect MR elements on a substrate are formed, a plurality of pairs of lead conductors connected with the respective spin valve effect MR elements on the substrate are formed, and then a plurality of protection circuits of magnetization inversion connected between the respective pairs of lead conductors on the substrate are formed. Each of the protection circuits is constituted so as to turn on when it receives an energy with a level at which the pinned direction inversion in each of the spin valve effect MR elements occurs.

A magnetoresistance effect device of the invention includes: a substrate; and a multilayer structure formed on the substrate. The multilayer structure includes a hard magnetic film, a soft magnetic film, and a non-magnetic metal film for separating the hard magnetic film from the soft magnetic film. The magnetization curve of the hard magnetic film has a good square feature, and the direction of a magnetization easy axis of the hard magnetic film substantially agrees to the direction of a magnetic field to be detected.

The invention provides a magnetoresistance effects film including (a) at least two thin magnetic films deposited on a substrate, (b) at least one thin nonmagnetic film interposed between the thin magnetic films, and (c) a thin antiferromagnetic film disposed adjacent to one of the thin magnetic films between which the thin nonmagnetic film is interposed. A bias magnetic field of one of the thin magnetic films induced by the thin antiferromagnetic film has an intensity Hr greater than a coercivity H.sub.C2 of the other of the thin magnetic films which is remote from the thin antiferromagnetic film (Hr>H.sub.C2). The thin antiferromagnetic film has a superlattice structure composed of at least two of NiO, Ni.sub.x Co.sub.1-x O(x=0.1-0.9) and CoO. A ratio of Ni relative to Co in the number of atoms in the superlattice structure is set equal to or greater than 1.0. The magnetoresistance effects film exhibits large linear change in resistance with the hysteresis being small even when a small external field is applied thereto.

An Fe--Zr--N base thin film composed of a metal nitride is formed by reactive sputtering. At the reactive sputtering step, the stress of the thin film is controlled by causing relative movement of the substrate with respect to a target in such a manner that the substrate can be periodically opposite to the target, or applying a negative bias voltage to the substrate, or performing said relative movement of the substrate with the application of the negative bias voltage to the substrate.
