Abstract

A magnetic recording element is composed of a first magnetic film to generate spin vortex by an external magnetic field and a second magnetic film having a magnetization perpendicular to the surfaces thereof, and also an insulating layer to control (repress) a current through the magnetic recording element which is formed between the first magnetic film and the second magnetic film. A given external magnetic field is applied to the magnetic recording element, to generate a spin vortex in the first magnetic film and then, generate a vertical magnetization at the center of the spin vortex. Then, a given data is written on the vertical magnetization.
