Magnetic Sensors Based on Amorphous Ferromagnetic Materials: A Review

Abstract: Currently there are many types of sensors that are used in lots of applications. Among these, magnetic sensors are a good alternative for the detection and measurement of different phenomena because they are a “simple” and readily available technology. For the construction of such devices there are many magnetic materials available, although amorphous ferromagnetic materials are the most suitable. The existence in the market of these materials allows the production of different kinds of sensors, without requir… Show more

“…Long cylindrical ferromagnetic wires with excellent soft magnetic properties [1,2] have been of interest for numerous applications, mainly in sensing devices such as electrical current and magnetic field sensors aimed for medical and automotive uses [3][4][5]. To obtain a low coercivity, H C , accompanied by a high relative magnetic permeability, µ r , such materials have been produced mainly in amorphous state, in order to avoid any magnetocrystalline anisotropy.…”

“…The AMR effect is based on the anisotropic scattering of conductive electrons with uncompensated spins. With a positive AMR coefficient, the resistance of Permalloy (Py: Ni 0.81 Fe 0.19 ) is at maximum when magnetization M and current density J are parallel ( R // ) and is at minimum when M and J are perpendicular with each other ( R ⊥ ) . The resistance can be expressed as R=RΔR(HextH0)2where ΔR = R // − R ⊥ , H ext < H 0 , H 0 is the total magnetic anisotropy field, and H ext is the external magnetic field perpendicular to the easy axis.…”

“…In the ferromagnetic thin films, the AMR effect is usually treated as a 2D problem. The resistance R depends on the angle φ between the magnetization M and the current I 44 R(φ)=Ro+(RpRo)cos2φ=Ro+ΔRcos2φ where R p for M parallel with I , and R o for M orthogonal with I .…”
