Abstract :
Extra ordinary Hall resistivity, AMR and planar Hall effect were used to study Co81Nb19 thin film as a function of in-plane applied field at different angles. Negative ρ|| (H)-ρ⊥(H) is observed. The planar Hall resistivity (ρH) was studied at various angles between the current and applied field. General curve shape of ρH for each angle follows the theory of AMR, however, it is also affected by the anisotropy of the thin film. We analyzed the ρH curves, and determined the easy axis of the thin film
