Description

A kind of oxide giant magnet electric resistance Spin Valve and comprise its equipment
The invention belongs to made, sensing and magnetic storage technical field, relate to a kind of oxide giant magnet electric resistance Spin Valve, preparation method and its usage.
Background of invention
Giant magnetoresistance GMR (giant magnetoresistance) effect since finding in the Fe/Cr multilayer film in 1988, owing to its application, become the research focus in new function material fields such as magnetics, magneto-electronics, magnetic recording material at once in fields such as Magnetic reading head and magnetic random memories.
1993, people such as Helmolt were off the beaten track, at La 2/3Ba 1/3MnO 3Observe the GMR effect in the film, the GMR effect is generalized to the perovskite rare earth manganese oxide film in research Metal and Alloy multilayer film.Nineteen ninety-five, when people such as Xiong Guangcheng found perovskite type manganese oxide Nd-Sr-Mn-O at 77K, outfield 8T in U.S. Maryland university, the GMR value reached 106%.But this effect need low temperature (<200K) and very big outfield (being generally 5-8T) just can show, limited the application of perovskite rare earth manganese oxide giant magnetic resistance material.Improving serviceability temperature and reducing the outfield is the key of present perovskite rare earth manganese oxide giant magnetic resistance material practicability.The Beijing Non-Ferrous Metal Research General Academy cooperates with the Beijing University of Technology, has prepared under the room temperature condition, and magnetoresistance effect reaches 8% individual layer Mn oxide film up to 62% perovskite rare earth manganese oxide body material and temperature 320K, outfield 0.8T, GMR value.But the outfield also needs further reduction.
As far back as 1991, B.Dieny utilizes the antiferromagnetic exchange coupling, suppressed the Barkhausen noise effectively, and derive from the magnetoresistance effect of the simplest repetition period according to the multilayer film giant magnetoresistance effect, propose ferromagnetic layer/separation layer/ferromagnetic layer/inverse ferric magnetosphere Spin Valve (spin-valve) structure, and at first in (NiFe/Cu/NiFe/FeMn) Spin Valve, found a kind of low saturation field giant magnetoresistance effect.Spin Valve because of its at room temperature, only need very low magnetic field (<100e) just show magnetoresistance effect preferably (2-5%) and higher magnetic field sensitivity (0.5-5%/Oe), be successfully applied in the multiple device.At present, thus the research emphasis of Spin Valve is the selection of layers of material and stability thereof further improves GMR and magnetic field sensitivity.The spin valve thin film magneto-resistor comes from the electronic spin dependent scattering, the relative orientation that depends on two magnetosphere magnetic moments (spin), therefore need be to the strict control of layers of material, wish that inverse ferric magnetosphere has high resistance, corrosion-resistant and Heat stability is good, free layer generally adopts the material that coercive force is less and giant magnetoresistance effect is big, and pinning layer wants giant magnetoresistance effect big.Transition metal has limited the raising of Spin Valve GMR because himself magnetoresistance effect is little.Perovskite rare earth manganese oxide RE 1-xA xMnO 3(RE is a rare earth element, A is the diatomic base earth elements) though since work magnetic field high, need work at low temperatures, limited its application, but huge magneto-resistor (can reach 106%) and minimum coercive force (about 10Oe) are just meeting the requirement of free layer and pinning layer, therefore only need a minimum external magnetic field just can obtain very big GMR effect.The promising professor of Nanjing University is at La 0.7Sr 0.3MnO 3/ Pr 0.5Sr 0.5MnO 3Also observed the antiferromagnetic exchange coupling in the mixed-powder, made GMR rise to 4% by 1.8%.In addition, select the chemical constitution of perovskite-type compounds, can show abundant performance, as La 0.7Sr 0.3MnO 3Be ferromagnetic metal state below 365K, surpassing 365K then is paramagnetic semiconductor attitude; Pr 0.5Sr 0.5MnO 3Be antiferromagnetic insulator; BaTiO 3Be electrical insulator; SrTiO 3Be superconductor etc.Therefore, huge perovskite family can satisfy the requirement of Spin Valve layers of material fully, thereby can guarantee to have excellent lattice matching between the adjacent layer material.Therefore, if the Spin Valve multi-layer film structure (low, working temperature height, highly sensitive) and the advantage of perovskite rare earth manganese oxide (huge magneto-resistor, minimum coercive force) are combined, are expected to prepare room temperature, low, high performance GMR material.To bring immeasurable influence to sensor and IT industry.
Chinese patent (publication number CN 1259500A) has been reported a kind of oxide giant magnet electric resistance material, but magnetoresistance effect only just can embody when low temperature 5K.
Chinese patent (publication number CN1146038) has been reported a kind of spin valve magneto-resistive effect magnetic head and disc driver, but its material is a metal alloy, does not relate to oxide.
