A magnetoresistance effect element comprises a magnetoresistance effect film and a pair of electrode. The magnetoresistance effect film having a first magnetic layer whose direction of magnetization is substantially pinned in one direction; a second magnetic layer whose direction of magnetization changes in response to an external magnetic field; a nonmagnetic intermediate layer located between the first and second magnetic layers; and a film provided in the first magnetic layer, in the second magnetic layer, at a interface between the first magnetic layer and the nonmagnetic intermediate layer, and/or at a interface between the second magnetic layer and the nonmagnetic intermediate layer, the film having a thickness not larger than 3 nanometers, and the film has as least one selected from the group consisting of nitride, oxinitride, phosphide, and fluoride. The pair of electrodes are electrically connected to the magnetoresistance effect film to supply a sense current perpendicularly to a film plane of said magnetoresistance effect film.

A spin-valve magnetoresistive effect film includes a magnetization fixed layer, a magnetization free layer, and a nonmagnetic intermediate layer interposed therebetween. The nonmagnetic intermediate layer has a conduction part disposed in an insulation layer and made of a nonmagnetic metal material. The ferromagnetic film stacked on an upper side of the nonmagnetic intermediate layer, out of ferromagnetic films constituting the magnetization fixed layer and the magnetization free layer has a perpendicular orientation part which is disposed above the conduction part and whose crystal growth direction is substantially perpendicular to a film plane, and a non-perpendicular orientation part which exists in a portion other than the perpendicular orientation part. A magnetoresistive effect element has a pair of electrodes passing a sense current in a direction perpendicular to the film plane of the spin-valve magnetoresistive effect film.
