Spintronics based on ferromagnets has enabled the development of microwave oscillators and diodes. To achieve even faster operation, antiferromagnets hold great promise despite their challenging manipulation. So far, controlling antiferromagnetic order with microwave currents remains elusive. Here we induce the coherent rotation of antiferromagnetic spins in a Weyl antiferromagnet W/Mn3Sn epitaxial bilayer by DC spin-orbit torque. We show the efficient coupling of this spin rotation with microwave current. The coupled dynamics produce a DC anomalous Hall voltage through rectification, which we coin the antiferromagnetic spin-torque diode effect. Unlike in ferromagnetic systems, the output voltage shows minimal dependence on frequency because of the stabilization of the precession cone angle by exchange interactions. Between 10 GHz and 30 GHz, the output voltage decreases by only 10%. Numerical simulations further reveal that the rectification signals arise from the fast frequency modulation of chiral spin rotation by microwave spin-orbit torque. These results may help the development of high-speed microwave devices for next-generation telecommunication applications.
