Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Amorphous SmFe2 layers with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy were successfully developed as a recording layer materials for a piezo electronic magnetoresistive devices. The origin of the magnetic anisotropy were investigated. We have also fabricated magnetoresistive devices including SmFe2 layer as the recording layer and observed nonlinear electric conduction characteristics due to tunnel conduction. However, no magnetoresistance effect could be observed at room temperature. A simple pressurizing structure which apply pressure to a SmFe2 pillar were fabricated. The change in magnetic characteristics with the application of voltage were detected.
