Magnetic sensor

1. A magnetic sensor comprising:

a non-magnetic substrate;

a sensitive element provided on the substrate, including a soft magnetic material, having a longitudinal direction and a short direction, provided with uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction, and sensing a magnetic field by a magnetic impedance effect; and

a protrusion part including a soft magnetic material and protruding from an end portion in the longitudinal direction of the sensitive element, wherein

the sensitive element and the protrusion part are in contact.

2. The magnetic sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the protrusion part protrudes in the longitudinal direction.

3. The magnetic sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the sensitive element has a wide shape at the end portion in the longitudinal direction, the wide shape having a width in the short direction that is wider than a width in the short direction at a center portion in the longitudinal direction.

4. The magnetic sensor according to claim 2 , wherein the sensitive element includes a wide shape at the end portion in the longitudinal direction, the wide shape having a width in the short direction that is wider than a width in the short direction at a center portion in the longitudinal direction.

5. The magnetic sensor according to claim 3 , wherein the sensitive element has a taper shape that is narrowed from the wide shape toward the center portion.

6. The magnetic sensor according to claim 4 , wherein the sensitive element has a taper shape that is narrowed from the wide shape toward the center portion.

7. The magnetic sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the protrusion part has a width equal to a maximum width in the short direction of the sensitive element.

8. The magnetic sensor according to claim 2 , wherein the protrusion part has a width equal to a maximum width in the short direction of the sensitive element.

9. The magnetic sensor according to claim 3 , wherein the protrusion part has a width equal to a maximum width in the short direction of the sensitive element.

10. The magnetic sensor according to claim 4 , wherein the protrusion part has a width equal to a maximum width in the short direction of the sensitive element.

11. The magnetic sensor according to claim 5 , wherein the protrusion part has a width equal to a maximum width in the short direction of the sensitive element.
