L. Piraux et al., ARRAYS OF NANOWIRES OF MAGNETIC METALS AND MULTILAYERS - PERPENDICULAR GMR AND MAGNETIC-PROPERTIES, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 175(1-2), 1997, pp. 127-136
The template strategy combined with electrodeposition techniques have
been used to fabricate arrays of nanowires of magnetic metals and mult
ilayers in the cylindrical pores of track-etched polymer membranes, Th
e giant magnetoresistance effects have been investigated in two differ
ent types of multilayered nanowires systems: Co/Cu and Ni80Fe20/Cu. In
addition, a comparative study of the magnetic properties of sub-micro
n Ni, Co, Fe and Ni80Fe20 wires is made by means of anisotropic magnet
oresistance and magnetization experiments.
