Abstract

See full text

A tunnel magnetoresistive sensor includes a pinned magnetic layer, an insulating barrier layer formed of Mg—O, and a free magnetic layer. A barrier-layer-side magnetic sublayer constituting at least part of the pinned magnetic layer and being in contact with the insulating barrier layer includes a first magnetic region formed of CoFeB or FeB and a second magnetic region formed of CoFe or Fe. The second magnetic region is disposed between the first magnetic region and the insulating barrier layer.
