Abstract :
A personal computer based semi-analytical micromagnetics design tool is described. The program enables the flexible modeling of systems of interacting single-domain rectangular prisms. The program utilizes a convenient graphical windowing interface that facilitates the design and analysis of the system. Magnetization and magnetoresistive curve properties of the system are calculated by the program. A design example of the magnetoresistive responses of spin valves with partially overlapping magnetic layers is presented
