Abstract:
We indicate that the Magneto-Impedance sensor using amorphous wires has reached a new stage to view "Super MI sensor technology" based on three main advantageous factors of (i) micro sized head and micro power consumption chip, (ii) ultra-high sensitivity micro magnetic sensor with 1 pico-Tesla resolution at the room temperature without any electromagnetic shielding, and (iii) ultra-quick response magnetic sensor with GHz operation. We summarize systematically the magneto-impedance technology with the basic principle and mechanisms of three advantageous features for constitution of various high performance new sensor devices such as the electronic compass chip for mobile phones and smart phones and portable sensors for the magneto-encephalography, the magneto-spinography, and various bio-cell magnetic measurements. Possibility of new application to MI antenna in magnetic telecommunications is also discussed.
