Abstract: A magnetoresistance effect element includes a first ferromagnetic layer, a second ferromagnetic layer, and a tunnel barrier layer that is interposed between the first ferromagnetic layer and the second ferromagnetic layer. The tunnel barrier layer is a stacked body including one or more high-barrier-height layers and one or more low-barrier-height layers, the one or more high-barrier-height layers having a relatively high barrier height with respect to the one or more low-barrier-height layers and the one or more low-barrier-height layers having a relatively low barrier height with respect to the one or more high-barrier-height layers. A minimum difference of barrier height between the one or more high-barrier-height layers and the one or more low-barrier-height layers is equal to or higher than 0.5 eV.

Abstract: A magnetoresistive effect element includes: a first ferromagnetic layer as a magnetization fixed layer; a second ferromagnetic layer as a magnetization free layer; and a nonmagnetic spacer layer provided between the first ferromagnetic layer and the second ferromagnetic layer. The nonmagnetic spacer layer includes at least one of a nonmagnetic metal layer formed of Ag, a first nonmagnetic insertion layer provided on a lower surface of the nonmagnetic metal layer, and a second nonmagnetic insertion layer provided on an upper surface of the nonmagnetic metal layer. The first nonmagnetic insertion layer and the second nonmagnetic insertion layer include an Ag alloy, and thereby lattice mismatch between the nonmagnetic spacer layer, and the first ferromagnetic layer and/or the second ferromagnetic layer is reduced, compared to lattice mismatch when the entire nonmagnetic spacer layer is formed of Ag.
