Abstract

자기 저항 장치는 스택 구조체를 구성하는데, 상기 스택 구조체는 다중 구조체를 제공하는 표면을 갖는 비전도성 기판을 구성하고, 상기 표면은 상호 거의 평행하는 복수의 홈으로 이루어져 있으며. 각 홈은 제1면 및 제2면을 갖고, 모든 제1면은 거의 평면적이고 상호 평행하며, 다층 구조체의 구성층은 평행인 방식으로 각각의 상기 제1면상의 스택내에 제공되고, 이들 스택의 두께로써 각각의 스택은 각각 바로 인접한 스택과 물리적으로 접촉하게 되며, 또한 다층 구조체의 자기 저항 효과는 상기 홈에 거의 수직인 면내 방향으로 기판의 평면을 통하여 전기 전압 기울기를 인가함으로써 측정가능한데. 이에 따라, 기판의 흠이 있는 표면을 가로질러 다층 구조체를 통해 측정가능한 전기 전류의 흐름을 유도하고, 바로 인접한 스택간의 전기 접촉 영역의 범위를 제외하고 방향이 각 스택의 구성층에 거의 수직인 방식으로 전류가 한 스택에서 다음 스택으로 흐르게 된다.
