Abstract
A method of orienting the axis of magnetization of a first magnetic element with respect to a second magnetic element uses a first element and a second element lying on a substrate. Each of the elements has a magnetic layer with an axis of magnetization. The method includes depositing a pattern of flux-concentrating material close to the first element and subsequently orienting the axis of magnetization of the first element in an applied magnetic field. The semi-finished article for measuring a magnetic field includes a substrate, a first magnetic element, a second magnetic element, a third magnetic element and a fourth magnetic element on the substrate in a bridge configuration. A first bridge portion is provided wherein the first element and the second element are electrically connected in series. A second bridge portion is provided wherein the third element and the fourth element are electrically connected in series.
