Abstract
To provide a magnetic storage element, a magnetic storage device, and an electronic device which store multi-value information with a simpler structure. A magnetic storage element provided with a plurality of tunnel junction elements each of which includes a reference layer having a fixed magnetization direction, a storage layer capable of reversing a magnetization direction, and an insulator layer interposed between the reference layer and the storage layer, the plurality of tunnel junction elements electrically connected to each other in parallel, in which the plurality of tunnel junction elements has film configurations identical to each other, respective layers of the film configurations formed by using a same material to have a same thickness, and each of cross-sectional shapes obtained by cutting the plurality of tunnel junction elements in a laminating direction is a polygonal shape including upper and lower sides parallel to each other with a ratio of the lower side to the upper side different for each of the plurality of tunnel junction elements.
