In the present invention, magnetic thin films having different coercive forces are stacked and deposited on a substrate such as glass using vacuum evaporation technology, and a pick-up coil is wound around this, or a pick-up coil is patterned and provided using photolithography technology. The present invention relates to a thin film magnetic sensor formed by: That is, a magnetic thin film with a small coercive force and a magnetic thin film with a large coercive force are successively deposited on a substrate using vacuum evaporation technology, and then deposited in an overlapping state, and by changing the magnetic field applied from the outside, the magnetic thin film with a small coercive force is In a thin-film magnetic sensor that generates a pulse voltage in a pickup coil placed near a magnetic thin film through an electromagnetic induction phenomenon caused by magnetization reversal, Fe is used as the material for the two magnetic thin film layers.
-Co-Ni system is used, and the composition ratio of the magnetic thin film with a small coercive force (hereinafter referred to as a soft film) and the magnetic thin film with a large coercive force (hereinafter referred to as a hard film) is different. It is characterized by the fact that Conventionally, many magnetic sensors that detect changes in external magnetic fields using semiconductor materials, magnetic materials, etc. have been developed and put into practical use. For example, devices using semiconductor materials include Hall elements, FETs, etc.
There is an element. These are InSb, -V group compounds of GaAs, Ge, and Si groups are mainly used. In addition, there are many magnetic materials such as memory elements, MR elements, and heads that use soft materials such as permalloy. In addition, as in JP-A No. 53-137641, magnetic wires are mechanically and thermally treated to change the magnetic properties of the surface layer of the magnetic wires, and the coercive force is made larger than the internal magnetic properties. Sensors are also provided. This material is made of Fe-Co-V, and its composition is
A thin wire consisting of one of the following compositions: Co: 45-55, Fe: 30-50, V: 4-14 is mechanically stretched, twisted, and heat treated repeatedly as appropriate. Then, the coercive force of the surface layer of the thin wire is made larger than the coercive force inside the thin wire, which is maintained as it is.
It has a structure in which a pick-up coil is wound around this. In response to changes in the external magnetic field, the magnetization direction of the internal small coercive force, which is magnetically restrained by the part with a large coercive force, is reversed by applying a magnetic field that exceeds this coercive force from the outside, and this causes a sudden change in the magnetic field. Moreover, a large pulse voltage can be generated in the pickup coil. Therefore, the sharpness and magnitude of this pulse voltage are far superior to those of a magnetic sensor made of a single magnetic material. Furthermore, a magnetic sensor made of a single magnetic material depends on the width of the pulse generated in the pickup coil with respect to the speed of change of the external magnetic field; the slower the change, the wider the pulse, and the faster the change, the narrower the pulse. On the other hand, in the magnetic sensor disclosed in JP-A-53-137641, magnetization reversal is performed all at once in response to an external magnetic field, so the pulse width hardly changes regardless of whether the external magnetic field changes quickly or slowly. However, the magnetic sensor of JP-A-53-137641 is
As mentioned above, the process is complicated and stability is difficult because the process is complicated and the process is repeated by applying tensile force and twisting force from the outside, mechanically damaging the surface of the thin wire, and then heat-treating it. be. In addition, this magnetic sensor is made of thin wire, for example, it can be made even finer or
When used in combination with an IC, it is extremely difficult to miniaturize the device to meet the requirements. The present invention provides a thin film magnetic sensor having a thin film structure using thin film technology as a method to eliminate all of these problems. That is, magnetic thin films having different coercive forces are stacked and formed on a substrate by vacuum evaporation using a resistance heating method, flashing method, electron beam evaporation, or sputtering evaporation, and a pickup coil is provided. It is sufficient to use two layers of magnetic films, one with a small coercive force and one with a large coercive force, and there is no need to repeat complicated mechanical and thermal treatments as in the past. Furthermore, since it has a thin film structure, it is possible to form even extremely small pieces using photolithography technology. The object of the present invention is to form this thin film structure using a Ni-Fe-Co magnetic material. In the thin film magnetic sensor according to the present invention, since the magnetization reversal that generates the pulse voltage in the pickup coil occurs in a magnetic thin film with a small coercive force, it is necessary that the magnetization reversal of this soft film be performed more efficiently. It has (1) high magnetic permeability;
(2) The magnetic susceptibility is large, and (3) the magnetization direction is aligned in one direction. That is, it has large uniaxial anisotropy. (1) and (2) can be satisfied by using permalloy material (Ni-Fe). (3) When thinning the film, the ratio of Ni and Fe in the soft film is Ni/Fe85/15 ~
It reaches its maximum at 40/60, especially near 60/40. Ni
- Uniaxial anisotropy is further improved by adding 0 to 40 wt% of Co to Fe. On the other hand, a hard film with a coercive force larger than that of a soft film can basically be used as long as it has a larger coercive force than a soft film, but during film formation, diffusion of components from the soft film to the hard film, Considering the reverse phenomenon or the compatibility between films, it is preferable to use materials of the same type. Therefore, when using Ni-Fe-Co material as a hard film suitable for the soft film,
Ni/Fe=10/90~30/70, Ni/Fe:Co=50:50
The composition should be in the range of ~100:0 (wt%). especially
Ni/Fe=20/80, Ni/Fe:Co=70:30 (wt%)
Close compositions are suitable. Using Ni-Fe-Co magnetic material, a soft film and a hard film are successively formed on the substrate using vacuum evaporation technology.The film consisting of these two layers is formed into a tanzag shape using photolithography technology, and the substrate is cut. After that, pick-up coils are wound around the strips, or the coils are patterned using photolithography technology.
It is a thin film magnetic sensor. When this sensor is placed in an external magnetic field that changes in magnitude and direction, a pulse voltage is generated in the pick-up coil. The principle of this occurrence can be considered as follows.

１表に示す。[Table] An external magnetic field is applied in the direction opposite to the magnetization direction of the soft film and hard film, and its magnitude is gradually increased. Even if the magnitude becomes equal to the coercive force of the soft film, magnetization reversal of the soft film does not occur because the coercive force of the soft film is constrained by the coercive force of the hard film (b). Furthermore, when the external magnetic field becomes larger and exceeds the constraints of the hard film, the magnetization reverses all at once (c). Due to the electromagnetic induction phenomenon caused by this reversal,
A pulse voltage is generated in the pickup coil. When the external magnetic field becomes larger than the coercive force of the hard film, the magnetization direction of the hard film also reverses (d). The magnetization reversal at this time is a magnetization reversal of a single magnetic thin film because there is nothing restraining it with a coercive force greater than the coercive force of the hard film. depends on the rate of change. The details of the present invention will be explained below using Examples. Examples Soft films and hard films of various compositions were stacked and deposited by electron beam evaporation on a glass substrate with a thermal expansion coefficient of 100 x 10 -7 /°C. To eliminate defects such as scratches on the surface of the board,
After polishing, it was heat treated to make it smooth. In addition, before depositing the soft and hard films, ion bombardment was performed with Ar gas to remove gas adsorbed on the surface of the substrate. Vacuum degree 2x
After the temperature was reduced to 10 -7 Torr, a soft film was first deposited on the substrate, and then a hard film was deposited on top of it. The thickness of the film was adjusted to 4000 Å for the soft film and 3500 Å for the hard film. The two-layer film created in this way is processed using photolithography technology.
After forming a strip of 0.5×5 (mm) in size, a SiO 2 film was sputtered to a thickness of 1000 Å, and the substrate was cut along the strip of magnetic film. A 60 μΦ coil was wound around this as a pickup coil at a winding density of 10 turns/mm to create a thin film magnetic sensor. When this thin film magnetic sensor was placed in a 1kHz sinusoidal magnetic field with an amplitude of 50 Gauss, the pulse voltage generated in the pick-up coil due to magnetization reversal of the soft film was investigated. The results are shown in Table 1.

By providing the composition as described in the claims, it is possible to obtain a pulse voltage generated by magnetization reversal of the soft film restrained by the hard film in response to changes in the external magnetic field.
Note that this pulse width was small and hardly changed even if the rate of change of the external magnetic field (for example, the frequency of the sinusoidal magnetic field) was changed. Moreover, the pulse voltage value was extremely large. In addition, when a comparative experiment was conducted using a thin film magnetic sensor with a composition outside the range, the sudden signal level generated in the pickup coil was about several tens of microvolts, and the characteristics were insufficient. Ta. As a result, if the level that can be handled as a signal without amplification is 1 mV or less, the composition range shown in Table 1 above is effective as a thin film magnetic sensor. In this way, the applied pulse voltage is larger and sharper than that of a magnetic sensor with a single coercive force.
Moreover, thin film magnetic sensors that are almost independent of the rate of change of the external magnetic field can control the rotational speed of the rotating body,
Alternatively, it can be used for position detection or even switches, and is very useful for such applications. Additionally, photolithography technology can be used to create extremely fine sensors that can be combined with ICs.
