Формирование обменного смещения и анизотропия формы в микрообъектах на основе спиновых клапанов

Rhombus-shaped microobjects formed by strips of two micrometers wide were fabricated from the spin valve film. The influence of the shape anisotropy on the layers magnetic moment rotation during the spin valve magnetic reversal is studied. A method for two-stage thermomagnetic treatment in a direction-fixed magnetic field has been found. The method allows to obtain the opposite sign values of the exchange bias fields in the non-parallel rhombus sides. The direction of the formed exchange bias is determined by the deviation of the strip from the uniaxial anisotropy axis and from the magnetic field applied during thermomagnetic treatment. Based on a rhombus-shaped microobject made from a single spin valve film, the device is a Full Wheatstone bridge. Each side of the rhombus is an active magnetically sensitive element.
