Abstract: The functional dependence of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) with respect to the relative angle between the orientations of the magnetization in the magnetic slabs of a trilayer system is calculated by using the Kubo-Greenwood formula for electrical transport together with the fully-relativistic spin-polarized screened Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method for semi-infinite systems and the coherent potential approximation. It is found that the functional dependence of the GMR is essentially of the form .
