1. A method of manufacturing a magnetic field detector using a thin film for detecting magnetic beads, the method comprising:
- preparing a substrate;
depositing the thin film on an upper surface of the substrate;
etching the thin film to form a ring-shaped magnetoresistive element;
forming, on the upper surface of a substrate, electrode pads connected to the magnetoresistive element;
forming a protective layer that covers the magnetoresistive element and portions of the electrode pads; and
forming, on an upper surface of the protective layer, a magnetic bead limiting layer which has a ring-shape that encloses the entire surface of the magnetoresistive element, the magnetic bead limiting layer used for impounding a solution containing the magnetic beads.
