Abstract

Provided are a magnetoresistance effect element and a magnetic memory having a shape magnetic anisotropy and using a recording layer having an anti-parallel coupling. A first magnetic layer () and a second magnetic layer () of the magnetoresistance effect element include a ferromagnetic substance, have a magnetization direction variable to the direction perpendicular to a film surface and are magnetically coupled in an anti-parallel direction, and a junction size D (nm), which is a length of the longest straight line on an end face perpendicular to the thickness direction of the first magnetic layer () and the second magnetic layer (), a film thickness t(nm) of the first magnetic layer (), and a film thickness t(nm) of the second magnetic layer () satisfy relationships D<tand D≤tor D≤tand D<t.
