Double-Gap Magnetic Flux Concentrator Design for High-Sensitivity Magnetic Tunnel Junction Sensors
2019
Overview
To improve the sensitivity of the magnetic tunnel junction(MTJ)sensor, a novel architecture for a double-gap magnetic flux concentrator (MFC) was studied theoretically and experimentally in this paper. The three-dimensional finite element model of magnetic flux was established to optimize the magnetic field amplification factor, with different gaps. The simulation results indicate that the sensitivity of an MTJ sensor with a double-gap MFC can be significantly better than that of a sensor with a traditional single-gap MFC, due to the fact that the magnetic magnification sharply increases with the decrease in effective gap width. Besides this, the half-bridge MTJ sensors with the double-gap MFC were fabricated using photolithography, ion milling, evaporation, and electroplating processes. Experimental results show that the sensitivity of the MTJ sensor increased by ten times compared to the sensor without the double-gap MFC, which underlines the theoretical predictions. Furthermore, there is no significant increase in the sensor noise. The work in this paper contributes to the development of high-performance MTJ sensors.
