As deposited and annealed MTJs with the structure of $Ta(5 nm)/Cu(10 nm)/Ta(5 nm)/Ni_{80}Fe_{20}(2 nm)/Cu(5 nm)/ Ir_{25}Mn_{75}(10 nm)/Co_{70}Fe_{30}(2.5 nm)/Al-O/Co_{70}Fe_{30}(2.5nm)/Ni_{80}Fe_{20}(t)/Ta(5nm)/Ni_{80}Fe_{20}(t)/Ta(5 nm)$, where t=10, 30, 60 and 100 nm were characterized by XRD and magnetic hysteresis loops measurements. The XRD measurements were done in grazing incidence $(GID scan-2{\theta})$ and ${\theta}-2{\theta}$ geometry, by rocking curve $(scan-{\omega})$ and pole figures in order to establish correlation between texture and crystallites size and magnetic parameters of exchange biased and interlayer coupling. The variations of shifting and coercivity field of free and pinned layers after annealing in $300^{\circ}C$ correlate with the improvement of ［111］ texture and grains size of $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$ and $Ir_{25}Mn_{75}$ respectively. The exchange biased and the coercivity fields of the pinned layer linearly increased with increasing grain size of $Ir_{25}Mn_{75}$, The reciprocal proportionality between interlayer coupling and coercivity fields of the free layer and grain size of $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$ was found. The enhancement of interlayer coupling between pinned and free layers, after annealing treatment, indicates on the correlated in-phase roughness of dipolar interacting interfaces due to increase of crystallites size of $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$.

Enhancement of the exchange bias and optimization of the structure have been the focus that many researchers studied, recently [1]. In this report, magnetic properties of MTJs with structure of Si/Ta (5)/Cu (10)/ Ta (5)/ Ni$\sub$80/Fe$\sub$20/ Cu (5)/ Mn$\sub$75Ir$\sub$25/ (10)/ Co$\sub$70/Fe$\sub$30/ (2.5)/ Al-O (1.5)/ Co$\sub$70/Fe$\sub$30/ (2.5)/ Ni$\sub$80/Fe$\sub$20/ (t)/ Ta (5) (t=0,10, 30, 60 and 100 nm, respectively) were investigated. The relationship between the structure and magnetic parameters of interfacial exchange coupling and interlayer coupling in as-deposited and annealed junctions was studied. The temperature dependence of exchange coupling was considered.

비자성사이층 Cu 두께(30 $\AA$, 35 $\AA$, 40 $\AA$)를 달리한 glass(7059)/N $i_{81}$$Fe_{19}$(70 $\AA$)/Co(10 $\AA$)/Cu(t $\AA$)/Co(15 $\AA$)/N $i_{81}$$Fe_{19}$(35 $\AA$)N $i_{25}$M $n_{75}$(250 $\AA$)Ta(50 $\AA$) 스핀밸브박막(spin valve film; SVF) 을 dc 스퍼터링으로 제작하였다 이 시편을 진공 열처리 한 후 자유자성층의 상호결합세기(interlayer coupling field; $H_{inf}$ )와 보자력(coercivity; $H_{sf}$ )에 대한 열처리 순환횟수 및 비자성층 두께 의존성에 관련한 자기저항특성을 조사했다. Cu 두께가 35 $\AA$인 SVF의 경우에 교환결합세기(exchange coupling field; $H_{ex}$)가 620 Oe, 보자력( $H_{c}$)이 280 Oe 및 자기저항(magnetoresistance; MR)비가 2.5%를 보였다. $H_{inf}$ 와 $H_{cf}$ 는 모든 SVF가 열처리 순환 횟수에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보이다가 일정한 값으로 안정화되며 Cu 35 $\AA$인 경우는 열처리 순환 횟수 15회 이후에 각각 120 Oe 및 75 Oe를 유지한다. $H_{inf}$ 및 $H_{cf}$ 가 열처리 순환횟수 증가에 따라 증가하는 것은 열처리 효과에 의해 Cu층과 Co층의 계면섞임 증대에 의한 유효한 Cu층 두께 감소에 기인한다. Cu가 적정둘레 35 $\AA$ 보다 더 얇아지거나 두꺼워지면 계면섞임에 의한 효과는 각각 더 증대하거나 둔화되는 것으로 분석된다.으로 분석된다..
