Annotation The study results of structural-phase state and magnetoresistive properties of spin-valve type nano-film based on Co and Cu are shown in this work. It is found that in these systems during the preparation and annealing at temperatures Tann  700 and 900 K solid solutions of Co atoms in Cu matrix are formed. Was shown that the spin-valve type film system Co (5)/Cu(x)/Co(20)/S expedient modified using multilayers [Co/Cu]n instead one of the magnetic Co layer. This modification increases the magnetoresistance values up to 0,3 ÷ 0,5 %, increases the switching speed from one magnetic state to another and thermal stability of nanosystems to temperature 700 K. Although magnetic sensitivity decreases to a value SB  (0,1 ÷ 0 2)  10 – 2 % / mT.
