Method for producing a printed magnetic functional element, and printed magnetic functional element

A method for producing a printed magnetic functional element, comprising:

• a substrate is provided on a surface having at least one contact made of an electrically conductive material,
• a structure arranged below, above or next to the contact and made of a material in the form of a powder with a mean particle size of between 100 nm and 10 μm having a magnetoresistive effect is printed as a paste, gel, dispersion or suspension on or onto the at least one contact and directly touching it, and
• subsequently the contact and/or the structure is functionalized by irradiation with electromagnetic radiation over a period of time in the millisecond range and becomes electrically conductive and sensitive to magnetic fields at least by forming a mechanical connection between individual particles of the electrically conductive material and/or the one magnetoresistive effect material, wherein the material exhibiting a magnetoresistive effect is selected from bismuth, indium, antimony, nickel, or an alloy of the elements mentioned, or at least contains bismuth, indium, antimony, nickel, or an alloy of the elements mentioned, wherein
• the period of time in the millisecond range is between 0.1 ms and 100 ms.
