Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A soft magnetic alloy powder includes a particle body and a surface layer. The particle body comprises a soft magnetic alloy including Fe and Co. The surface layer is located on a surface side of the particle body. The surface layer includes one or more local maximum points of Si concentration and one or more local maximum points of Co concentration. The surface layer satisfies DSi≤DCo, in which DSi is a distance from an interface between the particle body and the surface layer to a first Si local maximum point LSimax, and DCo is a distance from the interface to a first Co local maximum point LComax.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A soft magnetic alloy powder comprising: a particle body comprising a soft magnetic alloy including Fe and Co; and a surface layer located on a surface side of the particle body, wherein the surface layer includes one or more local maximum points of Si concentration and one or more local maximum points of Co concentration, and D Si ≤D Co is satisfied, in which D Si is a distance from an interface between the particle body and the surface layer to a first Si local maximum point L Si max as a local maximum point located closest to a particle center among the one or more local maximum points of Si concentration, and D Co is a distance from the interface to a first Co local maximum point L Co max as a local maximum point located closest to the particle center among the one or more local maximum points of Co concentration. 2. The soft magnetic alloy powder according to claim 1 , wherein D Si <D Co is satisfied. 3. The soft magnetic alloy powder according to claim 1 , wherein the surface layer comprises an oxide phase. 4. The soft magnetic alloy powder according to claim 1 , wherein the surface layer comprises a Si oxide phase including a Si oxide, and the L Si max exists in the Si oxide phase. 5. The soft magnetic alloy powder according to claim 4 , wherein the surface layer comprises a Co oxide phase including a Co oxide, the L Co max exists in the Co oxide phase, and a part of the Co oxide phase overlaps with a part of a surface side of the Si oxide phase. 6. The soft magnetic alloy powder according to claim 4 , wherein the surface layer comprises a Co oxide phase including a Co oxide, the L Co max exists in the Co oxide phase, and the Co oxide phase is located closer to a surface side of the surface layer than the Si oxide phase. 7. A dust core comprising the soft magnetic alloy powder according to claim 1 . 8. A magnetic device comprising the soft magnetic alloy powder according to claim 1 .
