| 摘要 |
The present invention provides a magnetoresistive element which includes a layered-perovskite oxide having a composition expressed by a formula L2(A1-zRzAn-1MnO3n+3+x and including a (L-O)2 layer in its crystalline structure, and a pair of ferromagnetic bodies formed in contact with the layer perovskite oxide so as to sandwich the oxide, where A represents at least one selected from the group of Ca, Sr, and Ba; L represents at least one selected from the group of Bi, Tl, and Pb; M represents at least one selected from the group of Ti, V, Cu, Ru, Ni, Mn, Co, Fe, and Cr; R represents a rare earth element; n is 1, 2, or 3; and x and z are numerical values satisfying -1≤x≤1, and 0≤z<1, respectively. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE> |
