At two sides of a multilayer film including a free magnetic layer, a first non-magnetic material layer, and a fixed magnetic layer, extension portions extending from the fixed magnetic layer are formed. At lower sides of the extension portions, a pair of first antiferromagnetic layers is formed with a space therebetween in a track width direction, and in addition, at upper sides of the extension portions, a pair of second antiferromagnetic layers is formed with a space therebetween in the track width direction.
