We need perfect defects - challenging the Brown’s paradox in permanent magnetism — •Oliver Gutfleisch — TU Darmstadt, Materialwissenschaft

It is common understanding that among the intermetallic phases used for high performance permanent magnets, practically none can fully realize its potential based on the intrinsic magnetic properties. Even if the grain size of the fully-dense magnet is close to the single domain size, the coercivity Hc is usually one order of magnitude smaller than the anisotropy field Ha - this situation is known as Brown’s paradox. The presence of crystallographic defects of various kinds, of secondary phases, of surface imperfections as well as magnetic inhomogeneities leads to local magnetic softening. On the other hand, a perfect single crystal shows ’no’ coercivity whatsoever. Looking at nucleation-type NdFeB (1,2) and pinning type SmCo (3) magnets we will revisit the Brown’s paradox and discuss possible ways of overcoming it.
