Abstract

A magnet structure includes a first sintered magnet, a second sintered magnet, and an intermediate layer disposed between the first sintered magnet and the second sintered magnet. Each of the first sintered magnet and the second sintered magnet independently includes crystal grains containing a rare earth element, a transition metal element, and boron. The intermediate layer contains rare earth element oxide phases and crystal grains containing a rare earth element, transition metal element, and boron. Each of the transition metal elements independently includes Fe or a combination of Fe and Co. An average coverage factor of the rare earth element oxide phases measured on the basis of a cross section perpendicular to the intermediate layer of the magnet structure is within a range of 10% to 69%.
