Through a systematic investigation of the magnetization rotation and reversal in an exchange‐biased NiFe/MnIr film electrically detected by spin rectification effect (SRE), we experimentally demonstrate that this SRE DC voltage can be detected in the field‐swept spectra both at resonant and nonresonant conditions. The spectra show clear shifted hysteretic curves driven by exchange bias and a hysteresis loop is formed at applied magnetic field around exchanged bias field by the nonzero SRE DC voltage with sign change with the sweeping direction. More interestingly, we found that the voltage magnitude changes upon switching of magnetization can be greatly enhanced at resonance thereby suggesting an attractive approach to realize a highly sensitive method to measure exchange bias field. This experimental behavior can be interpreted within the framework of the near‐resonant spin rectification effect. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
