| 摘要 |
A thin film magnetic head includes a magnetoresistive effect (MR) laminated body that has the following structure: first and second magnetic layers in which the magnetization direction of at least one of the magnetic layers changes according to an external magnetic field; the first magnetic layer is provided at a lower side of a laminated direction; the second magnetic layer is provided at an upper side of the laminated direction; a non-magnetic intermediate layer made of ZnO sandwiched between the first and the second magnetic layers; a first intermediate interface layer is provided at the interface between the first magnetic layer and the non-magnetic intermediate layer; and a second intermediate interface layer is provided at the interface between the non-magnetic intermediate layer and the second magnetic layer. At least the first intermediate interface layer contains Ag and Zn, or Au and Zn.
