Strong Ferromagnetically-Coupled Spin Valve Sensor Devices for Droplet Magnetofluidics

We report a magnetofluidic device with integrated strong ferromagnetically-coupled and hysteresis-free spin valve sensors for dynamic monitoring of ferrofluid droplets in microfluidics. The strong ferromagnetic coupling between the free layer and the pinned layer of spin valve sensors is achieved b...
