Abstract: A magnetic field detection device includes a first soft magnetic body, a second soft magnetic body, and a magnetism detection element. The first soft magnetic body extends to have a first length in a first direction, and has a first width, smaller than the first length, in a second direction. The second direction is substantially orthogonal to the first direction. The second soft magnetic body is disposed to be spaced apart from and face the first soft magnetic body in the first direction, extends to have a second length in the first direction, and has a second width, smaller than the second length, in the second direction. The magnetism detection element is disposed, in the first direction, between the first and second soft magnetic bodies, and extends to have a third length in the first direction and a third width, larger than the third length, in the second direction.

Abstract: A magnetoresistive element has a magnetization free layer whose magnetization direction changes in an external magnetic field; a magnetization pinned layer whose magnetization direction is pinned in the external magnetic field; and a barrier layer that is positioned between the magnetization free layer and the magnetization pinned layer and that exhibits a magnetoresistive effect. The barrier layer is an oxide of an alloy that includes Mg and Al, and the barrier layer includes a crystalline region and a non-crystalline region.
