Semiconductor storage device with magnetoresistive element

Abstract

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor storage device is disclosed. The device includes first magnetic layer, second magnetic layer, first nonmagnetic layer between them. The first magnetic layer includes a structure in which first magnetic material film, second magnetic material film, and nonmagnetic material film between the first and second magnetic material films are stacked. The first magnetic material film is nearest to the first nonmagnetic layer in the first magnetic layer. The nonmagnetic material film includes at least one of Ta, Zr, Nb, Mo, Ru, Ti, V, Cr, W, Hf. The second magnetic material film includes stacked materials, including first magnetic material nearest to the first nonmagnetic layer among the stacked materials, and second magnetic material which is same magnetic material as the first magnetic material and has smaller thickness than the first magnetic material.
