    摘要: A magnetic sensor having no sensitivity differences between sensitivity axes, and an easy manufacturing method therefor are provided. The method includes a process of forming first stacked films for a magnetoresistive element on a substrate. This element has a sensitivity axis in a certain direction and includes a self-pinned ferromagnetic pinned layer in which first and second ferromagnetic films are antiferromagnetically coupled through an antiparallel coupling layer, a nonmagnetic intermediate layer, and a soft magnetic free layer. The method further includes a process of removing a region of the first stacked films from the substrate. The remaining region of the films includes at least a region to be left to form the element. The method furthermore includes a process of forming second stacked films for a magnetoresistive element, which has a sensitivity axis in a direction different from the certain direction and has the same structure, on the exposed substrate.

    摘要: A magnetic detection device includes a layered film including a self-pinned magnetic layer, a free magnetic layer, a nonmagnetic material layer disposed between the pinned magnetic layer and the free magnetic layer, and a top capping layer. The pinned magnetic layer includes a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer, and a nonmagnetic intermediate layer disposed therebetween. A first magnetization of the first magnetic layer is pinned in antiparallel with a second magnetization of the second magnetic layer. The capping layer is formed of tantalum, and an as-deposited thickness of the capping layer is 55 Å or more.

    摘要: The invention provides a magnetoresistive element including a seed layer having a flat surface, which makes it possible to improve the flatness of all of the elements. A seed layer is formed in a two-layer structure of a first seed layer that is formed on a lower shield layer and a second seed layer that is formed underneath an anti-ferromagnetic layer, and the second seed layer is formed of ruthenium (Ru). According to this structure, the flatness of the surface of the seed layer is improved, which makes it possible to improve the flatness of interfaces between layers of an element formed on the seed layer. As a result, it is possible to manufacture a magnetoresistive element having a high dielectric breakdown voltage and high operational reliability.
