Mass produced amorphous wire type MI sensors

Summary form only given. The MI sensor, originally discovered by Mohri et al. (1992), has 10,000 times the sensitivity of the MR sensor. Mass-production of an amorphous wire sensor without loss of characteristics during bonding of the amorphous wire has been a considerable challenge. Here, the successful mass production of an amorphous wire type MI sensor is introduced. A summary of the sensor performance, and the technical points important to mass production are given.
