Abstract

The anisotropic magnetoresistance effect of Permalloy (Ni0.82 Fe0.18) is used in a contactless angle detector. The uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in a Permalloy thin film causes a difference between the direction of magnetization and the magnetic field direction. This leads to a systematic error in the angle detector output. The effects of uniaxial magnetic anisotropy can be reduced by using Permalloy multilayers with different orientations of their anisotropy axes. A double layer with mutually perpendicular anisotropy axes is found to be sufficient for application in an angle detector. The Stoner-Wohlfarth single-domain model is used to describe the systematic error of an angle detector using multilayers
