Detailed description of the invention
For making the purpose of this utility model embodiment, technical scheme and advantage clearer, below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in this utility model embodiment, technical scheme in this utility model embodiment is clearly and completely described, obviously, described embodiment is a part of embodiment of this utility model rather than whole embodiments.
Embodiment one
Fig. 1 is to use the schematic diagram that magnetic layer is biased on sheet, and on two sheets, magnetic layer 101 is distributed in magneto-resistor and ties 102 both sides, and the direction of magnetization of magnetic layer 101 is in figure 103.On the free layer 110 of magneto-resistor knot 102, due to the effect of magnetic layer, there is a bias-field 104 identical with 103 directions.Pinning layer 107 is annealed, and its internal magnetic field direction is alternately arranged, due to exchange-coupling interaction, causes the direction of magnetization of the nailed layer above it to be fixed to 108, and the direction of magnetization of nailed layer is parallel with the sensitive direction 105 that magneto-resistor is tied.Sealing coat 106 is positioned at the centre of nailed layer and free layer, and sealing coat can be made up of nonmagnetic oxide, such as aluminium oxide and magnesium oxide, it is also possible to be made up of nonmagnetic metal, such as copper.Free layer is the material of high magnetic permeability, and its direction of magnetization is affected by external magnetic field.The direction of bias-field 104 is parallel with free layer 110 place plane with the sensitive direction that magneto-resistor is tied, and the direction of bias-field is perpendicular to the sensitive direction of magneto-resistor knot, and the purpose of do so is the magnetic hysteresis reducing free layer 110, and then reduces the magnetic hysteresis of magnetic resistance sensor.
Fig. 3 is to use the top view of the sensor that magnetic layer biasing is constituted on sheet, and in figure, 302 is substrate, and magneto-resistor knot and magnetic layer are all deposited on substrate.Due to magnetic layer 304 meeting footprint area, thus limit the number of magneto-resistor knot 303, reduce the utilization rate of chip area.
In order to improve the utilization rate of chip area, and reducing the high cost brought due to magnetic layer on sheet, this utility model uses exchange biased method, provides the bias-field being perpendicular to sensitive direction for free layer.The magneto-resistor knot such as 201 in Fig. 2 constituted by exchange biased method, it is made up of Seed Layer 202, pinning layer 203, nailed layer 204, sealing coat 206, free layer 207, bias layer 209.Bias layer 209 is anti-iron material, and after annealing, its internal magnetization is distributed in periodic arrangement.Due to magnetic-coupled effect, existing for a bias-field 208 on free layer 207, bias-field direction is identical with bias layer 209 lower surface magnetic direction.The direction of magnetization of nailed layer is 205, and the sensitive direction of magneto-resistor knot is 210.The direction of bias-field 208 is vertical and all parallel with free layer 207 place plane with magneto-resistor knot sensitive direction, and this set also can reach to reduce the purpose of the magnetic hysteresis of free layer 207.By changing the thickness of bias layer 209, thus it is possible to vary act on the size of bias-field on free layer 207, and then the sensitivity of regulation magneto-resistor knot.
Fig. 4 is the top view of the sensor using exchange biased composition.In figure, 402 is substrate, and magneto-resistor knot is deposited on substrate.Owing to need not deposit magnetic layer on substrate, thus on identical substrate, more magneto-resistor knot 403 can be placed.This, to reducing cost, reduces power consumption, and it is useful for increasing signal to noise ratio.
Embodiment two
In order to make sensor, needing plural magneto-resistor, the magneto-resistor being typically different is positioned at different positions, as shown in Figure 5.Fig. 5 has two magneto-resistors, is 502 and 509 respectively.Magneto-resistor 502 comprises 40 magneto-resistor knots 501 being connected in series, and magneto-resistor 502 has two electric ends, each electric end to have two pads.Pad 503 and pad 504 are electric ends of magneto-resistor 502, and wire 505 connects pad 503 and 504;Pad 506 and pad 507 are that another of magneto-resistor 502 is electrically held, and pad 506 and pad 507 are also connected by wire.The structure of magneto-resistor 509 is identical with the structure of magneto-resistor 508, does not repeats them here.Owing to magneto-resistor 508 and magneto-resistor 509 are positioned at different positions, in quasiconductor and the micro electronmechanical course of processing, easily cause the difference of physical arrangement, cause the difference of the performance of different magneto-resistor.By magneto-resistor composition sensors different for performance, the decline of sensor performance will necessarily be caused due to matching problem.
The utility model proposes the structure that a kind of magneto-resistor knot is alternately arranged, as shown in Figure 6, figure has two magneto-resistors 614 and 615.Magneto-resistor 614 comprises 40 magneto-resistor knots 603 being connected in series, and magneto-resistor 614 has two electric ends, each electric end to have two pads.Pad 604 and pad 605 are electric ends of magneto-resistor 614, and wire 606 connects pad 604 and pad 605;Pad 607 and pad 608 are that another of magneto-resistor 614 is electrically held, and equally, the two pad is also connected by wire.The structure of magneto-resistor 615 is identical with the structure of magneto-resistor 614, does not repeats them here.Owing to the magneto-resistor of two magneto-resistors is tied alternately arranged, the discordance of two magneto-resistors brought due to technique can be reduced largely.
Fig. 7 is the resistance value change curve with external magnetic field of magneto-resistor, if the concordance of technique is bad, the magneto-resistor curve of two positions arises that deviation, such as curve 701 and curve 705 in figure.The response of magneto-resistor external magnetic field can be write as:
R=R0+ S × H formula (1)
Wherein R0Being external magnetic field resistance value of magneto-resistor when being 0, the point 704 in homologous thread 701 and the point 708 in curve 705, S is the sensitivity of magneto-resistor, and H is externally-applied magnetic field.Due to the homogeneity question in coating process and etching technics, resistance value and the sensitivity of the magneto-resistor knot of diverse location can there are differences.Particularly resistance value, the plastics thickness control being limited in the course of processing, the film thickness of different positions is difficult to accomplish unanimously.If but the magneto-resistor knot of different magneto-resistors is arranged alternately, then can reduce resistors match problem largely.
