  • The magnetic easy axis of the ferromagnetic layer for the dual-type GMR-SV (giant magnetoresistance-spin valve) having NiFe/Cu/NiFe/IrMn/NiFe/Cu/NiFe multuilayer structure controlled by the post annealing treatment. The magnetoresistive curves of a dual-type IrMn based GMR-SV depending on the direction of the magnetic easy axis of the free and the pinned layers are measured by the different angles for the applied fields. By investigating the switching process of magnetization for an arbitrary measuring direction, the optimum annealing temperature having a steady and isotropy magnetic sensitivity of 2.0 %/Oe was $105^{\circ}C$. This result suggests that the in-plane orthogonal magnetization for the dual-type GMR-SV film can be used by a high sensitive biosensor.

  • MacDonald and co-workers recently predicted that high current densities could affect the magnetic order of antiferromagnetic (AFM) multilayers, in ways similar to those that occur in ferromagnetic (F) multilayers, and that changes in AFM magnetic order can produce an antiferromagnetic Giant Magnetoresistance (AGMR). Four groups have now studied current-driven effects on exchange bias at F/AFM interfaces. In this paper, we first briefly review the main predictions by MacDonald and co-workers, and then the results of experiments on exchange bias that these predictions stimulated.

  • A highly sensitive, giant magnetoresistance-spin valve (GMR-SV) biosensing device with high linearity and very low hysteresis was fabricated by photolithography. The detection of magnetic nanoparticles and Fe-hemoglobin inside red blood cells using the GMR-SV biosensing device was investigated. When a sensing current of 1 mA was applied to the current electrode in the patterned active devices with an area of $2{\times}6{\mu}m^2$, the output signals were about 13.35 mV. The signal from even one drop of human blood and nanoparticles in distilled water was sufficient for their detection and analysis.

  • Giant magnetoresistance(GMR) of $Cu_{85-x}Co_{15}Ni_{x}$ melt-spu ribbons is closely correlated with the microstructure produced by the spinodal decomposition. The solid solution range is extanded by the replacement of Cu by Ni in the as-quenched state. The wavelengths obtained by subsequent isothermal aging in Cu-Co-Ni ribbons are shorter than those in Cu-Co binary ribbons, resulting in the increase of the surface-to-volume ratio. The largest MR ratio of 8 % in high field has been achieved in the $Cu_{80}Co_{15}Ni_{5}$ aged ribbon. The field dependence of MR ratio in low fields becomes larger with the Ni content.

  • Magneto resistance properties in spin-valve sandwiches with various thickness of nanmagnetic layer in contact with the ferromagnetic NiFe film were investigated. The NiFe layer in contact with the NiO film was pinned by strongly exchange-biased coupling and the free NiFe layer at the film surface induced a sharp change in the magnetoresistance at -5~15Oe due to small coercivity. The NiO/NiFe/Cu/NiFe film showed a magnetoresistance ratio in the range of 2.3~2.9% and a field sensitivity above 2.2%/Oe with various of nonmagnetic layer. The NiO/NiFe/Cu/NiFe film of the field sensitivity above 2.2%/Oe suggests stang possibility of magnetic sensor matter.
