Abstract
A new class of multilayers is fabricated on microstructured substrates. The Giant Magnetoresistance effect in a new geometry, CAP, (with current at an angle to the layer plane) was studied by using multilayers prepared on V-shaped groove structures with micron-scale. CAP-MR is larger than MR with current in the plane (CIP-MR). Moreover, MR value with current perpendicular to the plane (CPP-MR) is estimated by using observed CIP-MR and CAP-MR values. MR dependence in these geometries on temperature and spacer layer thickness was studied.
