| 摘要 |
A magnetic transducer employing giant magnetoresistance (GMR) has alternating ferromagnetic layers and spacer layers, the spacer layers having either different material compositions or different thicknesses across their widths to produce variations in the coupling between adjacent ferromagnetic layers across their widths. Longitudinal stabilization of the multi-layer GMR sensor is achieved by the use of exchange coupling layers on the top and/or bottom of the sensor edge-track regions.
