Abstract

See full text

A method for manufacturing a magnetoresistive sensor at very small dimensions with well a controlled track width and clean damage free side wall junctions. The method uses nano-imprinting rather than photolithography to pattern a resist layer. This eliminates the track width variations inherent in photolithographic patterning. The use of nano-imprinting also eliminates the need for a bottom anti-reflective coating beneath the resist layer, thereby also eliminating the need for an additional etch process to remove the bottom anti-reflective coating, which would also cause variations in track width.
