Abstract
A microwave receiver includes a magnetoresistive element to which a microwave is input, a magnetic field application unit, and a DC bias current application unit. The magnetoresistive element includes a free magnetic layer, a fixed magnetic layer, and a nonmagnetic spacer layer interposed between the free magnetic layer and the fixed magnetic layer. The magnetic field application unit applies a magnetic field to the free magnetic layer. The DC bias current application unit applies a DC bias current to the magnetoresistive element, and includes an input terminal. The DC bias current is made variable by adjusting a DC voltage that is applied to the DC bias current application unit via the input terminal.
