Abstract
The present invention addresses the problem of providing an element which uses the current-perpendicular-to-plane giant magnetoresistance (CPPGMR) effect of a thin film having the three-layer structure of ferromagnetic metal/non-magnetic metal/ferromagnetic metal. The problem is solved by a magnetoresistive element provided with a lower ferromagnetic layer and an upper ferromagnetic layer which contain a Heusler alloy, and a spacer layer sandwiched between the lower ferromagnetic layer and the upper ferromagnetic layer, the magnetoresistive element being characterized in that the spacer layer contains an alloy having a bcc structure. Furthermore, it is preferable for the alloy to have a disordered bcc structure.
