Abstract
An exchange-coupling film having a large magnetic field (Hex) at which the magnetization direction of a pinned magnetic layer is reversed, thus exhibiting high stability under high-temperature conditions, and having excellent high-magnetic-field resistance includes an antiferromagnetic layer and a pinned magnetic layer in contact with the antiferromagnetic layer. The antiferromagnetic layer has an alternating multilayer structure of three or more layers, the layers including alternately stacked XCr and XMn layers, where Xrepresents one or more elements selected from the group consisting of platinum group elements and Ni, and Xrepresents one or more elements selected from the group consisting of platinum group elements and Ni and may be the same as or different from X.
