Resistance noise in giant magnetoresistive materials
Abstract
dc:descriptionWe have studied resistance noise in a variety of systems exhibiting giant magnetoresistance (GMR) including coupled and uncoupled multilayers, spin-valves and granular systems. Large equilibrium 1/f noise in the resistance of these materials is associated with the GMR effect. One consequence was that we were able to use the out-of-phase response of the resistance to a magnetic field in an antiferromagnetically coupled GMR multilayer to make the first quantitative prediction of the 1/f noise in a resistor using the fluctuation-dissipation relation.
