Physics Today May 2001 (4789 words)
In 1992, sensors based on the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) effect were introduced for read heads and contributed to an annual storage-capacity growth rate of about 60% (AMR sensors exploit the difference between resistivity parallel to and that perpendicular to the magnetization).
AMR-based sensors have now been replaced by GMR sensors because the GMR effect is larger and GMR sensors can be more compact--an important consideration when trying to squeeze as much information as possible into a limited disk platter area.
Other potential applications for GMR lie in robotics and in sensors to control mechanical movements (for example, in cars).
