Abstract
A NdFeB system sintered magnet produced by the grain boundary diffusion method and has a high coercive force and squareness ratio with only a small decrease in the maximum energy product. A NdFeB system sintered magnet having a base material produced by orienting powder of a NdFeB system alloy and sintering the powder, with Dy and/or Tb (the 'Dy and/or Tb' is hereinafter called R) attached to and diffused from a surface of the base material through the grain boundary inside the base material by a grain boundary diffusion treatment, wherein the difference C−Cbetween the Rcontent C(wt %) in the grain boundary and the Rcontent C(wt %) in main-phase grains which are grains constituting the base material at the same depth within a range from the surface to which Ris attached to a depth of 3 mm is equal to or larger than 3 wt %.
