Definitions

  • Wheatstone bridge comprising bridge elements consisting of a spin valve system, and a method for their production
  • the invention relates to a Wheatstone bridge, comprising conventionally connected bridge elements, consisting of a spin valve system, and to a method for their production.
  • Such Wheatstone bridges are preferably used as sensors for measuring small magnetic fields and used as non-contact angle detectors.
  • magnetoresistive strip conductors are used according to the prior art, which are anisotropically connected with respect to their magnetoresistive properties and generally as a Wheatstone bridge (cf. for example DD 256 628, DE 43 17 512 AI).
  • the magnetoresistive strip conductors used here have anisotropic changes in resistance with respect to an external magnetic field, which is a desirable property for the intended use, for example as an angle encoder.
  • such strip lines for example based on Permalloy, only show maximum changes in resistance of approximately 2-3%, which is why a relatively high level of electronic and manufacturing effort has to be carried out.
  • Magnetoresistive sensors are designed in a known manner in the form of Wheatstone bridges in order to minimize or totally suppress environmental influences such as temperature changes on the measurement signal.
  • the construction of such Wheatstone bridges presupposes that adjacent bridge branches of a half-bridge behave in the opposite direction to the magnetoresistive change in resistance when exposed to an external magnetic field.
  • Layer systems with a so-called spin valve effect are also known, which are preferably used for the detection of small fields or also for angle detection (cf., for example, DE 43 01 704 AI).
  • a common feature of these layer systems is that they consist of magnetic individual layers in which, ideally, a sensor layer can be easily rotated magnetically and a bias layer is magnetically immovable. So far, these layers can only be operated as individual magnetoresistive strip sensors, which means that they are comparatively high Signals can be obtained, but also all other disturbances, such as temperature fluctuations, influence the measurement signal.
  • a solution to remedy this problem is described in DE 196 49 265 AI, which describes a GMR sensor with a Wheatstone bridge, in which spin valve layer systems are used for the individual bridge elements.
  • this solution requires a relatively complicated layout of the Wheatstone bridges arranged on relatively large chip areas (1 ... 4 mmr). Due to the layout required there, further miniaturization is not possible with this solution.
  • the layer structure of a spin valve system can be designed as a GMR layer system (using giant magnetoresistive materials) or as a TMR layer system (tunnel layer system).
  • the layer system consists of at least one antiferromagnetic layer, a ferromagnetic layer pinned by the antiferromagnet via an exchange bias, which can itself be part of a so-called artificial antiferromagnet (AAF), at least one flux guide layer and a conductive layer arranged between these ferromagnetic layers GMR layer systems or oxide layer for tunnel arrangements, a magnetoresistive sensor system with at least two sensor elements being able to be formed by means of this layer structure. For applications, these sensor elements are usually arranged in Wheatstone bridges.
  • bias magnetization direction (BMR) is usually set by applying a homogeneous magnetic field during the deposition of the magnetic layer system on a 3-6 "Si wafer. This has the consequence that the BMR is the same everywhere.
  • patent DE 198 30 343 Cl shows how, in the case of the use of combinations of antiferromagnetic layers and layer systems which are designed as artificial antiferromagnets, an antiparallel orientation of the BMR can be achieved by a suitable choice of the layers.
  • This proposal therefore proceeds from an identical layer structure for all sensor elements or for all areas that are to form sensor elements. This generally creates harmful asymmetries in terms of resistance and, above all, the temperature coefficient of resistance, which has a detrimental effect on operating behavior.
  • a second possibility is to build the Wheatstone bridges hybrid in such a way that the bridge branches consist of elements that are rotated geometrically by 180 ° in order to achieve an anti-parallel position of the BMR.
  • the former method requires suitable additional layers with suitable properties in the AAF.
  • the latter solution means a considerable additional effort in the production of the Wheatstone bridges, namely additional assembly effort and additional effort for the wiring, which in addition to higher costs also results in a deterioration in reliability.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a Wheatstone bridge, including bridge elements, consisting of a spin valve system, and a method for their production, which create a Wheatstone bridge while maintaining an initially uniform layer structure and a uniform bias magnetization (BMR), in which each adjacent half-bridges each have an anti-parallel BMR, the miniaturization of the Wheatstone bridge should not be limited by a circuitry complicated layout.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un pont de Wheatstone comportant des éléments de pontage montés de manière habituelle, constitués d'un système de vannes rotatives, ainsi qu'un procédé de fabrication de ce pont de Wheatstone. L'invention vise à mettre en oeuvre un pont de Wheatstone dans lequel des demi-ponts adjacents présentent respectivement un sens de magnétisation de polarisation antiparallèle. A cet effet, des éléments de pontage non-adjacents (1,3 ; 2, 4) sont pourvus d'un dopage d'ions implantables dans une quantité de 1.10<12> à 5.10<16> atomes/cm<2 >en dessous de la couche ferromagnétique à broches d'un système de couches de vannes rotatives à magnétorésistance élevée ou d'un système de couches de vannes rotatives tunnel. Lors d'un bombardement de zones de ponts sélectionnées (1, 3) ou de zones surfaciques n'étant pas pourvues d'un revêtement (5), avec des ions de dose et d'énergie faibles de dimension suffisamment élevée pour que ces ions traversent la couche ferromagnétique à broches, toutes les zones surfaciques ou tous les éléments de pont (1, 2, 3, 4) sont soumis à un champ magnétique homogène ciblé suffisamment puissant.
