ABSTRACT:
A magnetoresistive film having a spin valve multi-layer structure has low electrical resistance and high sensitivity. In the magnetoresistive film, an under-layer, a first ferromagnetic layer, a non-magnetic layer, a second ferromagnetic layer, and an antiferromagnetic layer are laminated on a substrate in this order. The magnetization direction of the second ferromagnetic layer is fixed by the antiferromagnetic layer, and the magnetization direction of the first ferromagnetic layer is not fixed. The average grain size of the first ferromagnetic layer ranges from 8 to 14 nm.
