Abstract:
1. A magnetoresistive element comprising; a first magnetic layer having opposed sides and a thickness, wherein the first magnetic layer has a fixed magnetic direction in a thickness direction thereof and includes cobalt therein; a second magnetic layer having a thickness, wherein the second magnetic layer has a fixed magnetic direction in a thickness direction thereof and the magnetic direction of the second magnetic layer is opposite to the magnetic direction of the first magnetic layer; a first non-magnetic layer disposed between the second magnetic layer and a first side of the first magnetic layer; a variable orientation magnetic layer, disposed on an opposite side of the first magnetic layer from the second magnetic layer; and a second non-magnetic layer interposed between the first magnetic layer and the variable orientation magnetic layer, wherein the first magnetic layer comprises a nonmagnetic material film and a second magnetic material film, the second magnetic material film containing Co
