Abstract
We have investigated the room temperature 1/f noise of microstructured soft magnetic Ni80Fe20 films, showing the anisotropic magnetoresistan ce effect, and of Ni80Fe20/Cu magnetic multilayers, showing the giant magnetoresistance effect. We find that the 1/f noise in magnetic multi layers is considerably enhanced with respect to the noise of the singl e domain layer, which sets a limit on the usability of giant magnetore sistance materials for low-frequency applications.
