Electrical and Magnetic Properties

Influence of the Size and Structural Factors on the Magnetism of Multilayer Films Based on 3d and 4f Metals

Svalov A., Vas’kovskiy V., Kurlyandskaya G.

Аннотация

This work has presented some data on the layer structuring of films of 3d and 4f metals and their alloys, which have potential for practical use in magnetic sensors. The decrease in the thickness of magnetic layers with this structuring entails natural worsening of the crystallinity and leads to a degradation of magnetic ordering. However, the manifestation of these tendencies depends to a great extent on the conditions of preparation, the composition, and the sequence of the deposition of the contacting layers in the multilayer structures. The combination of these factors makes it possible to realize an optimum composition and optimum structural states of the films, which in a number of cases lead to the appearance of new combinations of functional properties.

Giant Magnetoresistance of Metallic Exchange-Coupled Multilayers and Spin Valves

Ustinov V., Milyaev M., Naumova L.

Аннотация

The microstructure and the magnetic and magnetotransport properties have been investigated depending on the types of the magnetic and nonmagnetic materials, composition, nanostructure, and regimes of thermomagnetic treatments for two types of metallic nanostructures, namely, magnetic multilayers and spin valves, which exhibit the effect of a giant magnetoresistance (GMR). Magnetosensitive materials that are promising for the applications in microelectronics have been synthesized: CoFe/Cu multilayers with record values of the GMR effect (81%); NiFeCo/Cu multilayers with a sensitivity of 0.5%/Oe; and microobjects prepared on the basis of spin valves, which possess the anhysteretic field dependence of the magnetoresistance and a GMR effect equal to 9%. Special attention is given to the methods of decreasing hysteresis. A comparison of the obtained results with the results for similar types of materials published earlier has been carried out.
