A tunnel junction MR head can be easily manufactured and arranged as follow. A first tunnel junction is formed by a magnetization free layer, a first magnetization pinned layer and a thin insulated layer formed between the both layers. A second tunnel junction is formed by the magnetization free layer, a second magnetization pinned layer and an insulated layer. The first and second tunnel junctions are connected to both ends of the magnetization free layer through the magnetization free layer. A detection current flowing from a first electrode connected to the first tunnel junction is passed to a second electrode through the first tunnel junction, the magnetization free layer and the second tunnel junction.
