A PMR writer is disclosed that minimizes pole erasure during non-writing and maximize write field during writing through an AFM-FM phase change material that is in an AFM state during non-writing and switches to a FM state by heating during writing. The main pole layer including the write pole may be comprised of a laminated structure having a plurality of “n” ferromagnetic layers and “n−1” AFM-FM phase change material layers arranged in an alternating manner. The AFM-FM phase change material is preferably a FeRh or FeRhX alloy (X=Pt, Pd, or Ir) having a Rh content >35 atomic %. AFM-FM phase change material may also be used as a flux gate to prevent yoke flux from leaking into the write pole tip. Heating for the AFM to FM transition is provided by write coils and / or a coil located near the AFM-FM phase change material to enable faster transition times.

A rare earth permanent magnet is prepared by disposing a powdered metal alloy containing at least 70 vol % of an intermetallic compound phase on a sintered body of R—Fe—B system, and heating the sintered body having the powder disposed on its surface below the sintering temperature of the sintered body in vacuum or in an inert gas for diffusion treatment. The advantages include efficient productivity, excellent magnetic performance, a minimal or zero amount of Tb or Dy used, an increased coercive force, and a minimized decline of remanence.

A method for producing a sintered R-T-B based magnet includes the steps of: providing R-T-B based alloy powders A and B so that the R-T-B based alloy powder B has a particle size D50 that is smaller by at least 1.0 μm than that of the R-T-B based alloy powder A and that there is a difference ΔRH of at least 4 mass % between the higher content of a heavy rare-earth element RH in the R-T-B based alloy powder B and the lower content of the heavy rare-earth element RH in the R-T-B based alloy powder A; mixing these two R-T-B based alloy powders A and B together; compacting the mixed R-T-B based alloy powder to obtain a compact with a predetermined shape; and sintering the compact.

A laminated write pole layer for a PMR write head is disclosed in which a plurality of “n” magnetic layers and “n−1” non-magnetic spacers are formed in an alternating fashion on a substrate. The non-magnetic spacers promote exchange decoupling or antiferromagnetic coupling between adjacent magnetic layers. Writability is improved when the trailing magnetic layer has a thickness greater than the thickness of other magnetic layers and preferably >25% of the total thickness of the magnetic layers. The thicknesses of the other magnetic layers may be equal or may become progressively smaller with increasing distance from the trailing magnetic layer. In another embodiment, the non-magnetic spacer between the trailing magnetic layer and the nearest magnetic layer is replaced by a magnetic spacer made of a soft magnetic material to promote magnetic coupling and effectively increase the thickness of the trailing magnetic layer.

The present invention provides a method for preparing a permanent magnet material, the method comprising coating step and infiltrating step, wherein, coating a rare earth element-containing substance on the surface of a permanent magnet, the magnet having a thickness of 10 mm or less at least in one direction, then placing the magnet into a container, vacuuming to an atmospheric pressure of below 10 Pa, closing the passageway, and then heat treating the closed container. Using the method of the present invention enables the rare earth element to infiltrate homogeneously with a high permeability. In addition, the present invention may have a lower production cost, significantly increase coercive force of the permanent magnet material, but decrease the remanence very little.

The subject disclosure provides for utilizing pulse width modulation (PWM) signaling to influence a closed loop of a shunt boost controller and reduce an imbalance of a load. The imbalance reduction helps reduce remanence of a current transformer (CT) and thereby prevent saturation of the CT. A shunt boost controller provides the control signal to control flow of current to the load. A feedback network provides a feedback signal to the shunt boost controller based on a direct current (DC) voltage and causes a power switch circuit to turn on when a magnitude of the feedback signal exceeds a threshold magnitude. The PWM generator supplies a PWM signal to cause the control signal to be provided more symmetrical to the power switch circuit and causes the power switch circuit to turn on more frequently with the control signal to reduce the imbalance of the load.

The present invention provides a method for preparing a rare earth permanent magnet material. The preparation method of the present invention comprises atomizing spray process and infiltrating process, wherein the atomizing-sprayed sintered rare earth magnet is placed in a closed container before infiltrating. Through the atomizing spray process a solution containing a heavy rare earth element is coated on the surface of a sintered R1-Fe(Co)—B-A-X-M rare earth magnet, and after baking, heat treatment is performed to infiltrate the sprayed heavy rare earth element to the grain boundary phase of the sintered rare earth magnet. This method decreases the amount of a heavy rare earth element used, increases the coercive force of magnets with a little decrease of remanence, decreases the remanence temperature coefficient and coercive force temperature coefficient of the magnet, and improves resistance of the magnet against demagnetization at a high temperature.
