Abstract:
A rare earth magnet includes a main phase, a grain boundary phase present around the main phase and an intermediate phase interposed between the main phase and the grain boundary phase, and has an overall composition that is represented by the formula ((Ce(1-x)Lax)(1-y)R1y)pT(100-p-q-r)BqM1r′(R21-zM2z)s (where, R1 and R2 are rare earth elements other than Ce and La, T is at least one selected from among Fe, Ni, and Co, M1 is an element having a small amount that does not influence magnetic characteristics, and M2 is an alloy element for which a melting point of R21-zM2z is lower than a melting point of R2). A total concentration of Ce and La is higher in the main phase than in the intermediate phase, and a concentration of R2 is higher in the intermediate phase than in the main phase.
