Abstract
A photodetection element includes: a first ferromagnetic layer configured to be irradiated with light; a second ferromagnetic layer; and a spacer layer sandwiched between the first ferromagnetic layer and the second ferromagnetic layer, wherein the first ferromagnetic layer includes a first region in contact with the spacer layer and a second region disposed in a position farther from the space layer than the first region, the first region is made of CoFeB alloy, and the second region is a magnetic material containing Fe and Gd as major constituent elements.
