    摘要: A magnetic sensor uses a magnetoresistance element which can be driven in a stable manner with a dipole irrespective of a polarity of an external magnetic field. A resistance value R of first magnetoresistance elements varies, and a resistance value of second magnetoresistance elements does not vary with a variation in magnetic field magnitude of the external magnetic field H1 in the positive direction. A resistance value R of second magnetoresistance elements varies and a resistance value of first magnetoresistance elements does not vary with a variation in magnetic field magnitude of the external magnetic field H2 in the negative direction. Accordingly, the magnetic sensor can be driven in a stable manner with a dipole irrespective of the polarity of the external magnetic field.

    摘要: An exchange-coupled film includes a seed layer, an antiferromagnetic layer, and a ferromagnetic layer. The seed layer is formed at a thickness that is larger than the critical thickness, and the thickness of the seed layer is then decreased by etching so as to be smaller than or equal to the critical thickness. Thereby, a crystalline phase which extends through the seed layer from the upper surface to the lower surface can be formed, and/or the average size, in a direction parallel to the layer surface, of the crystal grains in the seed layer can be set to be larger than the thickness of the seed layer. Consequently, a large exchange coupling magnetic field Hex can be generated between the antiferromagnetic layer and the ferromagnetic layer.

    摘要: A CPP magnetic detecting element having a pinned magnetic layer whose magnetization is fixed by its uniaxial anisotropy in a structure that CIP magnetic detecting elements do not allow. In the CPP magnetic detecting element, the upper and lower surfaces of a pinned magnetic layer having an artificial ferrimagnetic structure are disposed between a magnetostriction-enhancing layer made of a nonmagnetic metal and a nonmagnetic material layer having a higher lattice constant than Cu. CPP magnetic detecting elements allow this structure without reducing the variation in resistance per unit area ΔR·A. Thus, the magnetostriction coefficient of the pinned magnetic layer can be increased from above and below, thereby more firmly fixing the magnetization of the pinned magnetic layer.

    摘要: A first magnetic layer includes an area which contains an element X (e.g., Cr) and is present in position toward the side of a nonmagnetic intermediate layer from the side near an opposite surface of the first magnetic layer away from an interface between the first magnetic layer and the nonmagnetic intermediate layer, and an area which is partly located in a region from the interface between the first magnetic layer and the nonmagnetic intermediate layer toward the opposite surface of the first magnetic layer and which does not contain the element X. Such an arrangement is able to improve a resistance change rate, to increase a coupling magnetic field based on the RKKY interaction, and to realize satisfactory control of magnetization of a free magnetic layer.
