2. Rare-earth magnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare-earth_magnet

   Ferrofluid on glass, with a rare-earth magnet underneath. A rare-earth magnet is a strong permanent magnet made from alloys of rare-earth elements.Developed in the 1970s and 1980s, rare-earth magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnets made, producing significantly stronger magnetic fields than other types such as ferrite or alnico magnets.

3. Neodymium magnet - Wikipedia

   Ring magnets Most hard disk drives incorporate strong magnets This manually-powered flashlight uses a neodymium magnet to generate electricity Neodymium magnets have replaced alnico and ferrite magnets in many of the myriad applications in modern technology where strong permanent magnets are required, because their greater strength allows the ...

4. Samarium–cobalt magnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samarium–cobalt_magnet

   A samarium–cobalt (SmCo) magnet, a type of rare-earth magnet, is a strong permanent magnet made of two basic elements: samarium and cobalt.. They were developed in the early 1960s based on work done by Karl Strnat at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Alden Ray at the University of Dayton.

5. Ferrite (magnet) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrite_(magnet)

   These so-called ceramic magnets are cheap, and are widely used in household products such as refrigerator magnets. The maximum magnetic field B is about 0.35 tesla and the magnetic field strength H is about 30–160 kiloampere turns per meter (400–2000 oersteds). [33] The density of ferrite magnets is about 5 g/cm 3.

7. Neodymium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium

   Neodymium is a component of "didymium" (referring to mixture of salts of neodymium and praseodymium) used for coloring glass to make welder's and glass-blower's goggles; the sharp absorption bands obliterate the strong sodium emission at 589 nm. The similar absorption of the yellow mercury emission line at 578 nm is the principal cause of the ...
