Giant Magnetoresistance: Basic Concepts, Microstructure, Magnetic Interactions and Applications

Abstract: The giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect is a very basic phenomenon that occurs in magnetic materials ranging from nanoparticles over multilayered thin films to permanent magnets. In this contribution, we first focus on the links between effect characteristic and underlying microstructure. Thereafter, we discuss design criteria for GMR-sensor applications covering automotive, biosensors as well as nanoparticular sensors.

“…On hierarchical structures following immobilization of enzymes was also studied . Even for nonmagnetic spacer layer, enhanced magnetic properties were observed due to the increase of magnetic moment at the interfacial regions as it was already predicted and observed in case of multilayers . Effect of the magnetic moment modification and therefore hyperfine magnetic field increase can be expected for some of the magnetic 3d elements and can be observed in multilayered systems …”

“…[26] Even for nonmagnetic spacer layer, enhanced magnetic properties were observed due to the increase of magnetic moment at the interfacial regions as it was already predicted and observed in case of multilayers. [27] Effect of the magnetic moment modification and therefore hyperfine magnetic field increase can be expected for some of the magnetic 3d elements and can be observed in multilayered systems. [28][29][30] In this paper, core-shell nanoparticles were fabricated, where each layer was composed of magnetic elements.…”

“…23,60 In an MR sensor, the resistance changes with the variation of the external magnetic field; the magnetoresistance value is defined as the total resistance variation (DR) normalized to its minimum value (R min ). [61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68] For applications in biomedicine and specifically in biosensing, the feature of MR sensors which is of significance is their ability to detect very weak magnetic fields (nT) at room temperature. For more than a decade, several research groups worldwide are focusing on the design and development of MR biosensing platforms for biomolecular recognition as well as detection and quantification of biological entities.…”

“…One of the most successful developments in the field that has also been commercialized is that of the Wang group from Stanford University and MagArray, Inc. 20,26,62,72,73,79,[87][88][89][90] Their biosensing platform has been verified for a number of applications such as cancer diagnostics, immune diagnostics, vaccine responses, and probing of protein-protein interactions. The development of the Eigen Diagnosis Platform (EDP) interfaced with a smartphone revolutionizes portable and affordable diagnostics.…”

“…Among the "Ferromagnetic/Normal metal" (FM/NM) systems the Co/Cu periodic structures remain attractive due to their magnetoresistive properties and manufacturability [4,5]. The Giant Magnetoresistive effect (GMR) in such nanofilms is attributed to the antiferromagnetic (AF) exchange coupling between Co layers through conductivity electrons of copper and depends on both the thickness of Cu layers and structure of the Co/Cu interfaces [6][7].…”
