Abstract

A magneto-resistive element includes a first element section including a first unit element and a second element section including a second unit element. The first element section is connected to the second element section in series. The first unit element includes a first reference layer with a magnetization that is fixed in an in-plane direction, and a first free layer including a vortex magnetization. The second unit element includes a second reference layer with a magnetization that is fixed in an in-plane direction, and a second free layer including a vortex magnetization. A direction of the fixed magnetization of the first reference layer is opposite to that of the second reference layer.
