We have studied the influence of the insertion of a nano-oxide layer (NOL) into a magnetic GMR spin-valve. It was found that the spin-valve with NOL has a higher GMR ratio than that of the normal spin-valve without NOL. Naturally formed NOL without vacuum break shows a uniform layer, which effectively suppresses the current shunt, resulting in the reduction of the sheet resistance of GMR. The NOL spin-valve also shows a lower interlayer coupling (Hin) than that of the optimal normal spin-valve, which is consistent with AFM measurement showing lower roughness of NOL formed CoFe surface. Based on the advantage of NOL, we succeeded in lowering Hin while maintaining GMR ratio by insertion of NOL inside the CoFe free layer, where the free layer consists of CoFe/NOL/CoFe/NOL/Capping layer.

AbstractWe have investigated the influence of the nano-oxide layer positions on giant magnetoresistance(GMR) of the NiFe(9nm)/Cu(4nm)/Co(5nm) pseudo spin valves. Nano-oxide layer positions had a several effects on the multilayer structure that changes its magnetotransport behavior. GMR ratio varied between 2.8% and 0.15% depending on the nano-oxide layer positions within the stack. The increase of the GMR ratio was accompanied by increase in resistance change, decrease in sheet resistance, and decrease in surface roughness. These significant variations of GMR ratio was explained by the changes on the spin dependent scattering or current shunting effect. Our results showed that appropriate placement of a nano-oxide layer was essential fo optimize magnetoresistance and properties of spin valves.
