APPARATUS FOR THE DETERMINATION OF MAGNETIC DOMAINS
A magnetic field can be detected by moving magnetized areas past a magnetoresistor, which responds to the changing magnetic field. The sensitivity to magnetic fields is limited by the width of the magnetoresistors used. To optimize the sensitivity, two spaced-apart ferromagnetic pole pieces (6, 7) a...

Zusammenfassung: | A magnetic field can be detected by moving magnetized areas past a magnetoresistor, which responds to the changing magnetic field. The sensitivity to magnetic fields is limited by the width of the magnetoresistors used. To optimize the sensitivity, two spaced-apart ferromagnetic pole pieces (6, 7) are so disposed between the magnetoresistor and the magnetized areas that their ends (8, 9) at the magnetoresistor (4) form a first gap (10) having a width (11) on the order of the width (12) of the magnetoresistor (4), and that their ends (13, 14) at the magnetized areas form a second, considerably narrower gap (16). |
