Claim 0:
1. A magnetic element comprising:
a body formed from a plurality of successive additively bonded layers of at least a magnetic alloy comprising at least Fe and Co, wherein the body has a maximum magnetic flux density of at least 2 Tesla, a coercivity of less than 1.1 Oe, and a permeability of greater than 7000 H/m;
wherein the body further comprises a plurality of successive additively bonded layers of at least one additional alloy, such that the body has at least a first portion formed from the magnetic alloy, at least a second portion formed from the at least one additional alloy, and at least a third portion disposed between the first and second portions and formed by at least one alloy that is a compositional gradient between the magnetic alloy and the at least one additional alloy.
