| 20080274270 | MAGNETIC SENSOR USING GIANT MAGNETORESISTIVE ELEMENTS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A magnetic sensor includes a single substrate, a conventional GMR element formed of a spin-valve film including a single-layer-pinned fixed magnetization layer, and a SAF element formed of a synthetic spin-valve film including a plural-layer-pinned fixed magnetization layer. When the spin-valve film intended to act as the conventional GMR element and the synthetic spin-valve film intended to act as the SAF element are subjected to the application of a magnetic field oriented in a single direction at a high temperature, they become giant magnetoresistive elements whose magnetic-field-detecting directions are antiparallel to each other. Since films intended to act as the conventional GMR element and the SAF element can be disposed close to each other, the magnetic sensor which has giant magnetoresistive elements whose magnetic-field-detecting directions are antiparallel to each other can be small. | 11-06-2008 |

| 20090274837 | METHOD OF PRODUCING THE MAGNETORESISTIVE DEVICE OF THE CPP TYPE - The invention provides a process for the formation of a sensor site of a magnetoresistive device in which the first ferromagnetic layer and a nonmagnetic intermediate layer are formed in order, then surface treatment is applied to the surface of the nonmagnetic intermediate layer, and thereafter the second ferromagnetic layer is formed on the thus treated surface of the nonmagnetic intermediate layer. The surface treatment is implemented by a method of letting a modification element hit right on the surface of the nonmagnetic intermediate layer using a vacuum. The nonmagnetic intermediate layer is composed mainly of an oxide or nitride, and the modification element is a low-melting element having a melting point of 500° C. or lower. It is thus possible to reduce spin scattering while reducing oxidization or nitriding of the surfaces of the ferromagnetic layers used for the sensor site, thereby achieving high MR change rates. There is also a limited dispersion of the MR change rate with extremely improved reliability. | 11-05-2009 |
