9. Glossary
magnetization; magnetization
Magnetic moment per unit volume, resulting from the sum of microscopic atomic moments.
axe facile d'aimantation ; easy magnetisation axis
Axis in which magnetization tends to be in the absence of an external field, in order to minimize system energy. A thin film is said to be planar-magnetized if the easy axis is in the plane of the film, and perpendicular-magnetized if it is perpendicular to the plane of the film.
giant magnetoresistance; magnétorésistance géante
Effect occurring in ferromagnetic bilayers separated by a metal barrier, corresponding to an increase in stack resistance of the order of 10% when the magnetizations of the ferromagnetic layers change from parallel to antiparallel.
tunnel magnetoresistance;...
