A memory element is provided. The memory element includes a memory layer that retains information based on a magnetization state of a magnetic material, in which a magnetization pinned layer is provided for the memory layer through an intermediate layer, the intermediate layer is formed of an insulator, spin-polarized electrons are injected in a stacking direction to change a magnetization direction of the memory layer, so that information is recorded in the memory layer, and a fine oxide is dispersed in an entire or part of a ferromagnetic layer forming the memory layer.
