Claim One:
1. A permanent magnet machine comprising: a rotor with a first plurality of permanent magnets placed on said rotor each of said first plurality of permanent magnets having a first magnet surface with alternating ridges and valleys originating near the center of said rotor and extending substantially radially toward the outer edge of said rotor, and a stator with a second plurality of permanent magnets placed on said stator, each of said second plurality of permanent magnets having a second magnet surface with alternating ridges and valleys originating near the center of said stator and extending radially toward the outer edge of said stator, wherein said rotor and said stator share a common axis of rotation where in said rotor first magnet surfaces are formed from magnetized material, and wherein said second magnet surfaces are formed from magnetized material.
