The measuring method of the present invention uses a magnetic artificial lattice film which faces a magnetic medium or a magnet and whose thermal conductivity changes in response to a change in magnetic field. The magnetic artificial lattice film is a substrate and a magnetic thin film laminated on the substrate via a non-magnetic thin film.
It is essential that the artificial lattice film used here can control the magnetization directions of adjacent magnetic thin films to be antiparallel or parallel by an external magnetic field. In the case of metallic materials, heat is mainly carried by free electrons, so the thermal conductivity depends on the mean free path length of free electrons.

The measurement was carried out by bringing the substrate on which the magnetic artificial lattice film 1 was formed into contact with a copper block kept at 4K as shown in FIG. 4B and cooling the magnetic artificial lattice film to 4K.
In this state, a constant amount of heat was applied by the heater unit 9 and the temperature difference was measured with the thermocouple gauges 7 and 8 to measure the heat conduction change ΔK while changing the magnetic field applied to the magnetic artificial lattice film.

The measurement was performed by changing it to 00 Oe. As shown in FIG. 3, the change in thermal conductivity is hysteretic with respect to the magnetic field. In FIG. 3, Ko is the thermal conductivity value when H = 3000 Oe, and ΔK is specified by this value.

In this magnetic artificial lattice film, the magnetization directions in the O magnetic field are substantially parallel to each other. However, when a magnetic field is applied, the magnetization of NiFe is first inverted and NiFe and Co are reversed.
It is possible to obtain a state in which the magnetization directions are antiparallel to each other. At this time, the conduction electrons are scattered most, so that the heat transfer rate greatly decreases and the change becomes the largest.

In this way, since the thermal conductivity greatly changes in the vicinity of the magnetic field in which the magnetizations of the adjacent magnetic thin films are antiparallel, the magnetic field can be measured using the thermal conductivity. Here, since the change in thermal conductivity due to the change in magnetic field is as large as 10 to 100%, the measurement can be performed with higher sensitivity than that using the conventional magnetic-resistance effect.
