Abstract
A Unilateral Linear Halbach magnet configuration includes a central magnetized region recessed relative to adjacent magnetized regions disposed on opposite sides of the central magnetized region. The Unilateral Linear Halbach magnet configuration further includes side (or outer) magnetized regions disposed adjacent the center-adjacent magnetized regions. The center and center-adjacent magnetized regions have like-pointing magnetization vectors while the magnetization vectors of the side magnetized regions point in directions orthogonal to the magnetization vectors of the center and center-adjacent regions. Further, the magnetization vectors of the side magnetized regions point in opposite directions.
