A method may include annealing a material including iron and nitrogen in the presence of an applied magnetic field to form at least one FeNphase domain. The applied magnetic field may have a strength of at least about 0.2 Tesla (T).

Applied magnetic field synthesis and processing of iron nitride magnetic materials

Techniques are disclosed concerning applied magnetic field synthesis and processing of iron nitride magnetic materials. Some methods concern casting a material including iron in the presence of an applied magnetic field to form a workpiece including at least one iron-based phase domain including uniaxial magnetic anisotropy, wherein the applied magnetic field has a strength of at least about 0.01 Tesla (T). Also disclosed are workpieces made by such methods, apparatus for making such workpieces and bulk materials made by such methods.
