1. A method of manufacturing a tunneling magnetoresistive element in which a first ferromagnetic layer which serves as p-type semiconductor and a second ferromagnetic layer which serves as an n-type semiconductor are connected via an insulative layer, and which shows tunneling magnetoresistance according to a magnetization of said first ferromagnetic layer and a magnetization of said second ferromagnetic layer, comprising:
forming said first ferromagnetic layer on a substrate;
forming the insulative layer on said first ferromagnetic layer; and
forming said second ferromagnetic layer on said insulating layer.
