  • Abstract
    The giant magneto-impedance (GMI) effect of (NiFe/SiO2) n/Cu/(SiO2/NiFe)n composite multilayers is investigated. The results show that the magnitude of the GMI effect changes with an increasing number of layers n of bilayers SiO2/NiFe. At n=3, the maximum MI ratios reached 17.08%. When n was further increased to four and five, the MI ratios decreased slightly. This is mainly attributed to changes in the samples´ magnetic characteristics, which is due to the influence of the magnetic moment direction of the NiFe layer and the inner stress
