TbCu7-type Sm–Fe–N powder was consolidated into bulk materials at room temperature by the compression shearing method. The resultant Sm–Fe–N bulk magnets retained the original TbCu7-type structure without any appreciable decomposition. It was found that the TbCu7-type Sm–Fe–N bulk magnet is magnetically isotropic. The isotropic Sm–Fe–N bulk magnets exhibited a maximum energy product of 20 MGOe with a coercivity of 9.5 kOe.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
