Figure 2: Spin-valve MR and anisotropic MR (AMR) versus Fe thickness for a series of 5 Fe(t_Fe)-Cu(61Å)-Co(55Å)-Cu(36Å) sandwiches grown on silicon substrates at 160 ûC. The spin-valve MR is the isotropic component of the total MR. The dashed line is a fit to the AMR data with form AMR = 0.097% + (0.002%/Å)t_Fe.
