In the last decade after the discovery of "giant magnetoresistance effects" in me tallic multilayers worldwide developments in basic research and in engineering applications have been achieved, and various remarkable results have been ob tained in both fields. On the basic research into the GMR effects an excellent re view book edited by Hartmann was published in 1999, entitled "Magnetic Multi layers and Giant Magnetoresistance," and it describes the experimental and theoretical aspects of GMR studies and the magneto-optics in metallic multilayers, including applications in electronic data...
