Abstract

A magnetic detecting device is constructed of a substrate, a first magnetic layer formed on the substrate, a first magnetic layer formed on the substrate, an intermediate layer containing an atom indicative of weak spincoupling and formed on the first magnetic film, and a second magnetic layer formed on the intermediate layer. The magnetic detecting device further comprises a unit or supplying a current through the first and second magnetic layers, and a unit for detecting a voltage generated between the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer while the current is supplied thereto.
