    摘要: Three terminal magnetic sensing devices (TTMs) having base lead layers in-plane with collector substrate materials, and methods of making the same, are disclosed. In one illustrative example, a collector substrate having an elevated region and a recessed region adjacent the elevated region is provided. An insulator layer is formed in full-film over the collector substrate, and a base lead layer is formed in full-film over the insulator layer and in-plane with semiconductor materials of the elevated region. The insulator materials and the base lead materials that are formed over the elevated region are removed. A sensor stack structure having an emitter region and a base region is then formed over the elevated region such that part of the base region is formed over an end of the base lead layer. A base conductive via may be formed to contact base lead materials of the base lead layer at a suitable distance away from the sensor stack structure. Advantageously, the base conductive via formation may occur without causing damage to the sensor stack structure. Also, the base lead layer is formed in the recessed region of the collector substrate prior to the formation of the sensor stack structure such that the TTM may be entirely in-situ manufactured. Furthermore, the trackwidth of the TTM may be defined directly by the elevated region of the collector substrate. The TTM is suitable for incorporation into nanoscale devices which increase areal recording densities, therefore aiding the revolution in magnetic storage.

    摘要: A three terminal magnetic sensing device (TTM) having a trackwidth defined in a localized region by a patterned insulator, and methods of making the same, are disclosed. In one illustrative example, one or more first sensor layers (e.g. which includes a “base” layer) are formed over a collector substrate. A patterned insulator which defines a central opening exposing a top layer of the one or more first sensor layers is then formed. The central opening has a width for defining a trackwidth (TW) of the TTM. Next, one or more second sensor layers are formed over the top layer of the one or more first sensor layers through the central opening of the patterned insulator. The one or more second sensor layers may include a tunnel barrier layer formed in contact with the top layer of the one or more first sensor layers, as well as an “emitter” layer. Various embodiments and techniques are provided.
