The technique involves measuring the CPP magnetoresistance of a sample containing a ferromagnetically coupled [F/N]x n multilayer embedded within the 20 nm thick central Cu layer of a symmetric Py-based, double exchange-biased spin-valve. To focus on delta(F/N), the F- and N-layers are made thin compared to their spin-diffusion lengths. We test the technique using F/N = Co/Cu.
