Description
Appl. Phys. Vol.69, 4774(1991)
本発明の第1の実施形態に係る磁気抵抗効果素子を、図1の断面模式図を用いて説明する。
メタルパス9の材料は、様々な金属を用いることができるが、Cu, Au, Ag, Pt, Pd, Osから選ばれる1種類以上の材料を主とする金属で構成することが好ましい。中間層Sの絶縁部8は、Ta, W, Nb, Al, Mo, P, V, As, Sb, Zr, Ti, Zn, Pb, Th, Be, Cd, Sc, La, Y, Pr, Cr, Sn, Ga, Cu, In, Rh, Pd, Mg, Li, Ba, Ca, Sr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Rbから選ばれる少なくとも一つを主とする、酸化物、窒化物、ホウ化物、塩化物、炭化物により構成される。
化合物層7の形成方法としては、分子ビームエピタキシー(MBE)、レーザーアブレーション、スパッター、CVDなどにより形成することが出来る。また、酸化物、窒化物、フッ化物、ホウ化物、炭化物などの場合には、あらかじめ形成した金属層表面を反応性ガスにさらすことで形成することも出来る。一般に半導体の形成はCVDやMBEが用いられるが、本発明の場合は著しい純度が求められているわけではなく、むしろ不純物を含んで低抵抗化していることが望ましいため、生成方法上重要なのは下部の磁性層(図1では、6)に悪影響を与えないことである。この観点から製法を選択すると、スパッター、あるいはあらかじめ形成した金属層表面を反応性ガスにさらす方法が好ましい。
