Abstract
We investigate the domain behavior of different magnetoresistance sens or elements to optimize a sensor shape for high sensitivity applicatio ns. Some of the encountered remanent domain patterns are analyzed usin g a novel quantitative magnetooptic observation technique. The center coercivity field and the saturation field of the elements were measure d as a clue for stability and sensitivity of the sensor element.
