Tunneling magnetoresistance sensors with different coupled free layers

Large differences of magnetic coercivity (HC), exchange coupling field (HE), and tunneling magnetoresistance ratio (TMR) in magnetic tunnel junctions with different coupled free layers are discussed. We demonstrate that the magnetization behavior of the free layer is not only dominated by the interf...
