Sm(CoFeCuZr)7 permanent magnets have a high energy product and are commonly used in applications at elevated temperature. Their high coercivity results in part from the pinning of magnetic domain walls at Sm2Co17 and SmCo5 phase boundaries. Here, we use the advanced transmission electron microscopy technique of electron holographic tomography, in combination with model-based reconstruction, to measure the three-dimensional magnetization distribution at a pinned domain wall in a needle-shaped sample of the permanent magnet Sm(CoFeCuZr)7 . The results are discussed by considering both the shape and the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the sample, as well local variations of its microstructure and chemical composition.
