There is great interest in developing magnetoresistance(MR) sensor, using ferromagnetic, electrically non-magnetic conducting and antiferromagnetic films, especially for the use in weak magnetic fields. Here, we report single and Wheatstone-bridge type of MR sensors made in Si(001)/NiO($300{\AA}$)/NiFe bilayers. Angular dependence of MR profiles was measured in Si(001)/NiO($300{\AA}$)/NiFe($450{\AA})$ films as a function of an angle between current and applied field direction, also, linearity was determined. AMR characteristics of single MR sensors was well explained with single domain model. Good linearity in $45^{\circ}$ Wheatstone-bridge type of MR sensors consisting of 4 single MR sensors made in Si(001)/NiO($300{\AA}$)/NiFe($450{\AA})$ was shown in the range of about ${\leq}{\pm}5$ Oe.

The magnetoresistance (MR) of $La_{1-\chi}S_{\chi}CoO_{3-\delta}$ films prepared by pulsed-laser deposition were investigated in order to clarify the magnetotransport properties around the metal-insulator transition. For the films in the metallic state ($\chi$ > 0.25), the MR(T) manifests a small peak at the Curie temperature due to the spin-disorder scattering. The transition of the film into the insulating state ($\chi\;\leq$ 0.25) is accompanied by an essential growth of the MR and results in a significant increase in the MR(T) with decreasing temperature, due to a phase separation into the ferromagnetic-metal clusters and the insulating matrix.

In order to study the effect of the magnetic anisotropy on the giant magnetoresistance (GMR), the angle dependent magnetoresistance (MR) was measured. The experimental results show that the maximum MR ratio depends on the angle between the direction of the applied field and that of the easy axis. The angular modulation of the MR ratio can be explained by the alignments of the two 'effective' magnetization vectors that are bound to their own easy axes. The typical property of MR loops at 2$\^$nd/ antiferromangtic maximum (AFM) such as two maxima was discussed in relation with the magnetic anisotropy (MA). The simulated results under an assumption of the two in-plane easy axes, which exist in the sample, were compared with the experiments.

이방성 자기저항효과(anisotropic magnetoresistance : AMR)는 단층 자성박막으로 구성되므로 경제성 있게 박막화 시켜서 소형화가 가능하다. 기존의 급속응고법으로 생산된 리본형 MCo(M=Cu, Ag) 소자가 경제적으로 공업적 목적을 달성하였으나, 리본형 특유의 두께와 가공성이 부족하여 소형 소자에 함께 집적하기 곤란한 단점이 있었다. 새로운 박막형을 쓰면 추가 열처리 없이 기존의 리본형 소자와 비교하여 박막상태로 적절한 AMR 특성이 나오는지와 최적 AMR을 얻기 위한 Co의 조성을 아는 것이 중요하다. 열증착기를 써서 100nm의 $Cu_{1-x}Co_x$와 $Ag_{1-x}$ 박막을 Co의 조성을 $10{\sim}70wt%$로 달리하며 제작하여 이때의 자기적 특성을 확인하였다. CuCo는 40% Co에 0.5T에서 1.4%, AgCo는 30% Co에 2.6%의 MR비를 얻었고 이는 리본형 소자보다는 표면 산란 효과에 의해 MR비는 작지만 표면산화막 없이 직접 다른 소자공정과 함께 진행할 수 있는 장점이 있음을 확인하였다.

Fine $La_{2/3}Ca_{1/3}MnO_3$ nanocrystalline powders have been successfully prepared by modified citrate pyrolysis process. The obtained LCMO nanoscale grains have a mean particle size of about 30 nm under optimal treatment conditions. The particle size can be controlled by adjusting processing parameters, such as treatment temperature and calcination time. X-ray diffraction, SEM and magnetoresistance effect were employed to study the crystal structure, morphology and magnetic property of these nanosized powders. A novel MR effect (MR > 45% (0 K < T < 340 K)) at room temperature has been found.

We have studied the magnetoresistance phenomena on spin valve thin films of antiferromagnetic NiO/CoO. Interlayer coupling oscillates between the antiferrocoupling and ferrocoupling with the variation of Cu thickness. The exchange coupling strength between NiO (antiferromagnetic) and NiFe(ferromagnetic) as a function of NiO texture and interface roughness is investigated by CoO insertion. CoO has significantly higher anisotropy in the (111) plane and interface roughness. It seems that the MR-ratio is increased by CoO inserted films. From the AFM and XRD data, the increase of MR-ratio and exchange field is influenced by the roughness of CoO.

The magnetoresistance (MR) properties of antiferromagnetic (AFM) IrMn based giant magnetoresistance-spin valve (GMR-SV) was investigated in view point of the artificial rotation effect of ferromagnetic (FM) layer in the plane induced by an applied field during the post annealing temperature. The MR curves measured with an azimuthal angle region of ${\phi}=0^{\circ}-360^{\circ}$ are depended on the annealing temperature and the magnetization easy axis of two free NiFe layers and two pinned NiFe layers in dual-type GMR-SV film. Especially, the annealing temperature and sample rotation angle(${\theta}$ ) maintained to the magnetic sensitivity (MS) of 1.4 %/Oe with an isotropic region angle of $110^{\circ}$ are $100^{\circ}C$ and $90^{\circ}$, respectively.

반강자성체인 IrMn 박막이 삽입된 4가지 다른 유형으로 GMR-SV 다층박막을 Corning glass 위에 이온빔 증착 시스템과 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링 시스템으로 제조하였다. 모든 박막시료는 진공 열처리 후 측정한 major 및 minor 자기저항(MR) 곡선으로부터 자기적 특성을 조사하였다. IrMn 박막이 삽입된 상부층의 이중구조(dual-type structure) GMR-SV 다층박막에서 고정층의 교환결합력($H_{ex}$)과 보자력($H_c$), 자유층의 보자력과 상호교환결합력($H_{int}$)은 각각 410 Oe, 60 Oe, 1.6 Oe, 7.0 Oe이었다. 2개의 자유층에 의한 히스테리시스 곡선은 안정된 사각비를 형성하였으며, 자기저항비(MR(%))는 3.7 %와 5.0 %의 합으로 8.7 %이었다. 그리고 평균 자장민감도(MS)가 2.0 %/Oe을 유지하고 있었다. 반면에 IrMn 박막이 삽입된 하부층의 단일구조와 이중구조 GMR-SV 다층박막의 자기적 특성은 IrMn 박막이 삽입된 상부층의 단일구조와 이중구조 GMR-SV 다층박막보다 훨씬 저하하게 나타내었다. 이중구조 GMR-SV 다층박막의 강자성체인 고정층과 자유층의 자화 스핀배열을 서로 반평행 상태에서 독립적인 이중 스핀 의존산란(Spin-dependent Scattering) 효과에 의해 MR은 최대값을 나타내었다.

We have investigated the magnetic domain structure and the thermal stability of magnetotransport properties of IrMn biased spin-valves containing Co, CoFe and NiFe. The magnetic domain structures were imaged using a magneto-optical indicator film(MOIF) technique. To investigate the thermal stability, magnetoresistance(MR) was measured at annealing temperature(TANN) and room temperature($T_{RT}$) followed by the annealing. Domain imaging reveal that the increase of annealing temperature led to changes in the exchange coupling between the two ferromagnet(FM) layers through nonmagnetic layer rather than between FM and antiferromagnet. unlike the NiFe biased IrMn spin valve with large domains, MOIF pictures of Co and CoFe biased IrMn spin valve structures show the formation of many small microdomains. The magnetic structure, as revealed by the domain images, appeared unchanged while the MR dropped dramatically. From the combined giant magnetoresistance(GMR) and MOIF results, it was apparent that the decrease of MR ratio was not related to the spin valve magnetic structure up to about $350^{\circ}C$($T_{RT}$ ).

Magnetoresistance (MR) of mumetal/Co/Co/Co multilayer is measured as a function of surface etching on the top Co layer by ion beam etching system. As the etching process proceeds, Co thickness and roughness decreases. MR is dominantly affected by Co layer thickness, but surface roughness makes no significant effect on the MR of mumetal/Co/Cu/Co multilayer.
