METHOD FOR FABRICATING A MAGNETORESISTIVE DEVICE

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for manufacturing a magnetoresistive device. The method comprises: releasing a multi-layer magnetoresistive structure for forming the magnetoresistive device from a first substrate; and relaxing an intrinsic stress inside the multi-layer magnetoresistive structure, so as to improve magnetic properties and magnetoresistive properties of the magnetoresistive device. The magnetic properties and/or the magnetoresistive properties nonrestrictively include coercivity, squareness or abruptness of switching, magnetoresistance (mr), and resistance of the magnetoresistive device.
