摘要： A magneto resistance effect element includes a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer and a spacer layer interposed between the first and second magnetic layers. The magneto resistance effect element is configured to allow sense current to flow in a direction that is perpendicular to film planes of the first magnetic layer, the second magnetic layer and the spacer layer so that a relative angle between a magnetization direction of the first magnetic layer and a magnetization direction of the second magnetic layer varies depending on an external magnetic field. The present invention aims at providing a magneto resistance effect element which ensures high resistance to sense current, while limiting the influence of the current limiting layer on the magnetic layer, and which thereby achieves a high magneto resistance ratio.

摘要： The invention provides a magnetoresistive device of the CCP (current perpendicular to plane) structure comprising a magnetoresistive unit sandwiched between soft magnetic shield layers with a current applied in the stacking direction. The magnetoresistive unit comprises a nonmagnetic intermediate layer sandwiched between ferromagnetic layers. A planar framework positions the soft magnetic shield layers and comprises a combination of a nonmagnetic gap layer with a bias magnetic field-applying layer constructed by repeating the stacking of a multilayer unit comprising a nonmagnetic underlay layer and a high coercive material layer. The nonmagnetic gap layer is designed and located such that a magnetic flux given out of the bias magnetic field-applying layer is efficiently directed along a closed magnetic path around the framework to form a single domain of magnetization.

摘要： The invention provides a magnetoresistive device with the CPP (current perpendicular to plane) structure, comprising a nonmagnetic intermediate layer, and a first ferromagnetic layer and a second ferromagnetic layer stacked and formed with said nonmagnetic intermediate layer interposed between them, with a sense current applied in the stacking direction, wherein each of said first and second ferromagnetic layers comprises a sensor area joining to the nonmagnetic intermediate layer near a medium opposite plane and a magnetization direction control area that extends further rearward (toward the depth side) from the position of the rear end of said nonmagnetic intermediate layer; a magnetization direction control multilayer arrangement is interposed at an area where the magnetization direction control area for said first ferromagnetic layer is opposite to the magnetization direction control area for said second ferromagnetic layer in such a way that the magnetizations of the said first and second ferromagnetic layers are antiparallel with each other along the width direction axis; and said sensor area is provided at both width direction ends with biasing layers working such that the mutually antiparallel magnetizations of said first and second ferromagnetic layers intersect in substantially orthogonal directions. It is thus possible to obtain a magnetoresistive device that, while the magnetization directions of two magnetic layers (free layers) stay stabilized, can have high reliability, and can improve linear recording densities by the adoption of a structure capable of narrowing the read gap (the gap between the upper and lower shields) thereby meeting recent demands for ultra-high recording densities.

摘要： The invention provides a magnetoresistive device of the CPP (current perpendicular to plane) structure, comprising a magnetoresistive unit, and a first, substantially soft magnetic shield layer positioned below and a second, substantially soft magnetic shield layer positioned above, which are located and formed such that the magnetoresistive effect is sandwiched between them from above and below, with a sense current applied in the stacking direction. The magnetoresistive unit comprises a nonmagnetic intermediate layer, and a first ferromagnetic layer and a second ferromagnetic layer stacked and formed such that said nonmagnetic intermediate layer is sandwiched between them. At least one of the first shield layer positioned below and the second shield layer positioned above is configured in a framework form having a planar shape (X-Y plane) defined by the width and length directions of the device. The framework has a front frame-constituting portion located on a medium opposite plane side in front and near where the magnetoresistive unit is positioned, and any other frame portion. The any other frame portion partially comprises a combination of a nonmagnetic gap layer with a bias magnetic field-applying layer. The bias magnetic field-applying layer is constructed by repeating the stacking of a multilayer unit at least twice or up to 50 times, wherein the multilayer unit comprises a nonmagnetic underlay layer and a high-coercive material layer. The nonmagnetic gap layer is designed and located such that a magnetic flux given out of the bias magnetic field-applying layer is efficiently sent out to the front frame-constituting portion. The combination of the nonmagnetic gap layer with the bias magnetic field-applying layer forms a closed magnetic path with a magnetic flux going all the way around the framework, and turns the magnetization of the front frame-constituting portion into a single domain. It is thus possible to make the domain control of the shield layers much more stable, achieve remarkable improvements in resistance to an external magnetic field, and make the operation of the device much more reliable.
