Measurements and characterization of thin film systems for sensor applications

Magnetoresistance (MR) sensors offer cost-effective solutions for various industrial and consumer applications, including emerging areas such as Internet-of-things (IoT) and artificial intelligence. The fundamental motivation for the SensTronic project is the advancement of magnetoresistance sensors. These sensor elements are based on the AMR, GMR or TMR effect. The goal of sensor element development is the adaptation of certain sensor properties to the necessary requirements. Through product-adapted sensor properties, a competitive advantage can be achieved, which can decisively contribute to gaining further market shares.
