Abstract
A magneto-resistance device comprises a stacked structure, which stacked structure has a non-conducting substrate having a surface on which a multilayer structure is provided. The surface is furnished with a plurality of grooves which are substantially mutually parallel, each groove comprising a first and a second face. All first faces are substantially planar and mutually parallel. The constituent layers of the multilayer structure are provided in a stack upon each first face in such a manner as to be parallel thereto, the thickness of the stacks being such that each stack makes physical contact with each immediately neighbouring stack.
