    摘要: It is possible to obtain sensitivity which can achieve an excellent error rate with a high recording density. There are provided a magnetization free layer which has two opposed main surfaces, one of which is set to be generally parallel to an air bearing surface; an intermediate layer which is formed on an opposite side face of the magnetization free layer from a medium to come in contact with the magnetization free layer; and a pair of magnetization pinned layers which are formed on an opposite side face of the intermediate layer from the magnetization free layer to come in contact with the intermediate layer and extend outwardly. A sense current flows from one magnetization pinned layer to the other magnetization pinned layer through the magnetization free layer.

    摘要: A magnetoresistive head has a magnetoresistive film including first and second magnetization free layers, an intermediate layer sandwiched between the first and second magnetization free layers, an underlayer and a protective layer, which are stacked in the order of the underlayer, the first magnetization free layer, the intermediate layer, the second magnetization free layer and the protective layer and arranged to be substantially perpendicular to the air-bearing surface, and a first electrode connected with the underlayer and a second electrode connected with the protective layer, the electrodes allowing a current to flow in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane. The intermediate layer includes a stacked film of a metal layer/an oxide layer, a stacked film of a metal layer/a nitride layer, a sandwich film of a metal layer/an oxide layer/a metal layer, or a sandwich film of a metal layer/a nitride layer/a metal layer.

    摘要: A magnetoresistive head has a magnetoresistive film including first and second magnetization free layers, an intermediate layer-sandwiched between the first and second magnetization free layers, an underlayer and a protective layer, which are stacked in the order of the underlayer, the first magnetization free layer, the intermediate layer, the second magnetization free layer and the protective layer and arranged to be substantially perpendicular to the air-bearing surface, and a first electrode connected with the underlayer and a second electrode connected with the protective layer, the electrodes allowing a current to flow in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane. Each magnetization direction of the first and second magnetization free layers is allowed to vary independently in response to a signal magnetic flux from a medium. The first and second magnetization free layers produce a magnetoresistance effect in accordance with the magnetization directions thereof.
