AbstractWe have demonstrated the use of highly sensitive spin valve sensors for the detection of micron magnetic beads. By using a ring type, cross type, and meander line type sensors, we were able to detect the presence of 2.8 μm size magnetic beads in real time by direct measurement of magnetic dipole fields from magnetic beads. The sensitivity of the ring, cross and meander line sensors were obtained about 50 μV/Oe, 7 μV/Oe, 30 μV/Oe and sensor output signals of 50 μV , 30 μV, 90 μV were obtained in an external applied field of 10 Oe and 1 mA sense current. Our results shows that ring, cross, and meander line shape spin valve sensors are very promising candidates for the detection of biomolecules with magnetic labels.

Circular magnetic spin valve nanopillars in a dual vortex configuration have dynamic characteristics strongly dependent on the interlayer dipole coupling. We report here on frequency domain properties of such nanopillars obtained by micromagnetic simulations. After the free layer is chirality switched with spin transfer torque, a radial spin wave eigenmode spectrum forms in the free layer with unusually large edge amplitude. The structure of these modes indicate a departure from the magnetostatic processes typically observed experimentally and treated analytically in low aspect ratio isolated disks. Our findings give new details of dynamic chirality control and relxation in nanopillars and raise potential signatures for experiments.

Magnetic spin valve structures have a great practical interest as sensors of magnetic fields, hard disk read heads and elements of magnetic random access memories (MRAM). Despite the large number of experimental and theoretical work on spin valve structures, the effects of interlayer interactions occurring in these structures, at present time are not fully understood.

AbstractElectromigration reliability of a GMR spin valve device has been investigated at elevated temperatures at various DC current densities. Significant degradation of the magnetoresistance was observed when the current density was higher than 20 MA/cm2. Either the electromigration induced damage or the rotation of the magnetization vector of the Mnlr anti-ferromagnetic layer are possible mechanisms of degradation. Furthermore, significant voiding caused by electromigration and thermal gradient induced atomic motion was observed at current densities higher than 35 MA/cm2. High-resolution temperature distribution measurements by scanning thermal probe microscopy revealed the existence of a huge temperature gradient of 106°C/cm, which is a strong driving force for atomic diffusion.

The possibility of the Josephson-like effect in a spin valve system is discussed. It is argued that in the absence of the bias voltage, the system can have dc currents flowing through the tunneling junction under certain conditions when alignments of spins in two ferromagnetic (FM) layers separated by an insulating layer, are parallel. The system may have ac currents flowing through the junction when spins in the two FM layers are tilting aligned or antialigned, this being a result quite different from the Josephson effect in superconducting junctions. In the presence of the bias voltage, the tunneling current is, in general, alternating, but for the case of antialigned spins, it contains a dc current component when the bias voltage takes a specific value (a resonant condition). The case with an ac bias voltage is also addressed.
