Description

Magneto-resistive element, method for manufacturing magneto-resistive element, and magnetic sensor device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of magnetic sensors, and more particularly, to a magnetoresistive element, a method for manufacturing the magnetoresistive element, and a magnetic sensor device.
Background
Common tunneling magneto-resistive (Tunnel magnetoresistance, TMR) linear sensors typically employ CoFeB/MgO/CoFeB systems to achieve high TMR ratios to increase the sensitivity of the sensor. But CoFeB will have a larger hysteresis due to its larger remanence. A common way to improve the linearity of the sensor is to make the reference layer perpendicular to the magnetization direction of the free layer, usually in two ways: rotating the magnetization direction of the free layer by utilizing shape anisotropy through a design of a large length-width ratio; an antiferromagnetic layer is coupled to the free layer to fix the magnetization direction of the free layer using a weak pinning effect. However, the improvement effect is limited, and the magnetic field is still quite residual although the magnetic field can meet certain requirements. The scheme for further improving the linearity is to improve the free layer structure, and a common method is to reduce the thickness of the free layer to enable the free layer to have a superparamagnetic effect, so that the hysteresis is improved, but the sensitivity of the sensor is greatly reduced; another approach is to compound the free layer, i.e., a layer of soft magnetic material such as NiFe on top of the CoFeB free layer, but NiFe affects the crystallization of CoFeB and thus the sensitivity of the sensor.

As shown in fig. 2, the first reference layer 1011 has a first film surface 1011a, and is magnetized and fixed in a first direction D1 in the in-plane direction of the first film surface 1011 a.

In this embodiment, the thickness of the first free layer 1012 is 30-200 nm, and the length of the long axis of the first free layer 1012 is 1-20 μm, which reduces the axial length and increases the thickness compared to the conventional free layer. The preset vortex state magnetic domain refers to that a magnetic domain in the first free layer 1012 is in a vortex state, in this embodiment, the preset vortex state magnetic domain is a vortex-anti-vortex state magnetic domain, the magnetic domain of the first free layer 1012 forms two first vortex cores around an axis perpendicular to the first film surface 1011a, so that the first free layer 1012 forms a vortex-anti-vortex state magnetic domain, the magnetic domain of the first free layer 1012 is in a vortex state at the first vortex core, and the magnetic domain of the first free layer 1012 is in an anti-vortex state between the first vortex cores.

It can be understood that the second film surface refers to a plane where the second reference layer 2011 is located, and the second direction D2 is a magnetization direction of the second reference layer 2011, which is generally a direction specified in an in-plane direction of the second film surface 2011a, where the second direction D2 is opposite to the first direction D1 in the present embodiment, and the second direction D2 is parallel to the easy magnetization direction of the first film surface 1011 a.
As shown in fig. 5, the second free layer 2012 has an elliptical shape, a major axis parallel to the second direction D2, a minor axis perpendicular to the second direction D2, and a ratio of the major axis to the minor axis of 1-2, and has a predetermined vortex magnetic domain.
It should be understood that, in the present embodiment, the thickness of the second free layer 2012 is 30 to 200nm, the length of the long axis in the second free layer 2012 is 1 to 20 μm, which is reduced in axial length and increased in thickness compared to the conventional free layer. In this embodiment, the magnetic domains of the second free layer 2012 form two second vortex cores around an axis perpendicular to the second film surface 2011a, such that the second free layer 2012 forms a vortex-anti-vortex magnetic domain, the magnetic domain of the second free layer 2012 is in a vortex state at the second vortex cores, and the magnetic domain of the second free layer 2012 is in an anti-vortex state between the second vortex cores.

Fig. 6 shows the magnetic properties under the same conditions of the magnetoresistive element using the low aspect ratio elliptical free layer of the present embodiment and the magnetoresistive element using the circular free layer of the corresponding size as a comparative example, and it can be seen that the present embodiment can obtain higher sensitivity in a smaller area.
It can be understood that, if the magnetization directions of the first reference layer 1011 and the second reference layer 2011 are opposite, and the other conditions of the first element portion 10 and the second element portion 20 are the same, the embodiment corresponds to flipping the first element portion 10 by 180 ° to obtain the second element portion 20, and the first element portion 10 and the second element portion 20 may be connected in series to form a wheatstone structure.
It should be understood that each first unit element 101 in the first element portion 10 is connected in series, and each second unit element 201 in the second element portion 20 is connected in series.
In the present embodiment, the magnetoresistive element includes a first element portion 10 and a second element portion 20, the first element portion 10 and the second element portion 20 are connected in series, the first element portion 10 includes one or more first unit elements 101, the second element portion 20 includes one or more second unit elements 201, the first unit elements 101 include a first reference layer 1011 and a first free layer 1012, and the second unit elements 201 include a second reference layer 2011 and a second free layer 2012.

In this embodiment, the elliptical free layer is adopted, and the low aspect ratio is adopted, so that the axial length of the junction region is properly reduced, and meanwhile, the thickness of the free layer is increased, so that the magnetic domains of the first free layer 1012 and the second free layer 2012 are in a vortex-anti-vortex state, and compared with a single vortex state represented by a right circular free layer, the sensitivity is higher, compared with a multi-domain state of a free layer with a large aspect ratio, the anisotropy energy influence is greatly reduced, and the hysteresis is greatly inhibited.
Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic cross-sectional structure of a second embodiment of the magneto-resistive element of the present invention. Based on the first embodiment described above, the present invention proposes a second embodiment of the magnetoresistive element.
As shown in fig. 7, in this embodiment, the first unit element 101 further includes a first insulating layer 1013, the first free layer 1012, the first insulating layer 1013, and the first reference layer 1011 are stacked in this order from top to bottom, and the first insulating layer 1013, the first reference layer 1011, and the first free layer 1012 have the same shape. The second unit element 201 further includes a second insulating layer 2013, the second free layer 2012, the second insulating layer 2013, and the second reference layer 2011 are sequentially stacked from top to bottom, and the second insulating layer 2013, the second reference layer 2011, and the second free layer 2012 have the same shape.
In this embodiment, since the first free layer 1012 and the second free layer 2012 have an elliptical shape, the length of the major axis is 1 to 20 μm, and the ratio of the major axis to the minor axis is 1 to 2, the first insulating layer 1013, the first reference layer 1011, the second insulating layer 2013, and the second reference layer 2011 have an elliptical shape, the length of the major axis is 1 to 20 μm, and the ratio of the major axis to the minor axis is 1 to 2, wherein the thicknesses of the first free layer 1012 and the second free layer 2012 are 30 to 200nm.
As shown in fig. 8, a first ferromagnetic layer 1012a and a first soft magnetic layer 1012b are sequentially disposed on a side of the first free layer 1012 away from the first insulating layer 1013.
It is understood that the first soft magnetic layer 1012b is disposed over the first ferromagnetic layer 1012a, and that the first soft magnetic layer 1012b may be composed of permalloy or, permalloy or microcrystalline alloy, may be composed of various elements in Co, fe, ni, al, ga, si, B, and is not limited to CoFeSiB, coFeAl, niFeSi and cofegumo.
As shown in fig. 9, a second ferromagnetic layer 2012a and a second soft magnetic layer 2012b are sequentially disposed on a side of the second free layer 2012 remote from the second insulating layer 2013, wherein the second soft magnetic layer 2012b is disposed above the second ferromagnetic layer 2012a, and the second soft magnetic layer 2012b is composed of permalloy, amorphous alloy, or microcrystalline alloy, is composed of a plurality of elements in Co, fe, ni, al, ga, si, B, cu, mo, and is not limited to CoFeSiB, coFeAl, niFeSi or cofegumo.
It should be understood that the first ferromagnetic layer 1012a and the second ferromagnetic layer 2012a may be formed by CoFeB, and the thicknesses of the first soft magnetic layer 1012b and the second soft magnetic layer 2012b may be generally equal to or greater than 20nm, may be 40-150nm, or may be adjusted according to practical situations, which is not limited in this embodiment.
In this embodiment, the composite free layer structure of the first ferromagnetic layer/the first soft magnetic layer has little influence on CoFeB crystallization, and therefore, the sensitivity is reduced due to no attenuation of the TMR ratio, and the linearity is further improved, so that the hysteresis is reduced. Fig. 10 shows a schematic diagram of the magnetic properties of the magnetoresistive element prepared by the present embodiment and the comparison example using NiFe instead of the first soft magnetic layer (CFSB corresponds to the R-H loop of the present embodiment) under the same process parameters, and it can be seen that the TMR value of the final device prepared by the present embodiment can reach 190%, whereas the TMR value of the device prepared by the comparison example can only reach about 160% -170% due to the NiFe affecting the crystallization of CoFeB.
It can be appreciated that, as shown in fig. 11, comparing the magnetic properties of the magnetoresistive devices prepared in this embodiment and the comparative example using CoFeB alone as the free layer, the present embodiment is easier to form the anti-vortex magnetic domain and can achieve a higher linear range and lower hysteresis than using CoFeB alone free layer material.
It should be understood that the first reference layer 1011 and the second reference layer 2011 may be formed of CoFeB, the thickness may be 2-20nm, the first insulating layer 1013 and the second insulating layer 2013 may be formed of MgO, the thickness may be 1-3nm, other materials and other thicknesses may be used, and the present embodiment is not limited thereto.
