Observed AMR is positive at room temperature for Feco and NiFe single layer as 0.08 and 0.18%, respectively. The magnetic electrodes were prepared using Ultra High Vacuum DC magnetron sputtering, and RR-P3HT was prepared using a spin coater. The magnetic properties of the device were studied by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) analysis. The VSM results conclude that both electrodes are magnetic materials with different coercive forces.

As a result of the electrodeposition, AgNW-AgNW and AgNW-silver micromesh contacts are effectively welded, and the dimensions of the AgNWs and the silver micromesh are optimized to maximize the figure of merit of the TCE.
