Abstract
An object is to provide a magneto-sensitive wire that exhibits a stable anisotropic magnetic field even under a high-temperature environment and can achieve expansion of the measurement range of an MI sensor, etc. The present invention provides a magneto-sensitive wire for magnetic sensors that comprises a Co-based alloy having a composite structure in which crystal grains are dispersed in an amorphous phase. The Co-based alloy contains 0.05 to 0.80 at %, preferably 0.10 to 0.60 at %, of Cu with respect to 100 at % of the Co-based alloy as a whole. The Co-based alloy may further contain 65 to 90 at % of the group of magnetic elements consisting of Co, Fe, and Ni as the total, 15 to 27 at % of Si and/or B as the total, and 0.5 to 2.5 at % of Mo. Such a magneto-sensitive wire is excellent in the heat resistance and exhibits a stable anisotropic magnetic field even under a high-temperature environment. By using the magneto-sensitive wire of the present invention, it is possible, for example, to efficiently produce an MI sensor with an expanded measurement range.
