Integrated circuits (ICs) and method for forming IC devices are presented. In one embodiment, a method of forming a device with an integrated magnetic component using 3-dimensional (3-D) printing is disclosed. The method includes providing a substrate with a base dielectric layer, the base dielectric layer serves as a base for the integrated magnetic component. A first metal layer is formed on the substrate by spray coating metal powder over the substrate and performing selective laser melting on the metal powder. A magnetic core is formed on the substrate by spray coating magnet powder over the substrate and performing selective laser sintering on the magnet powder. A second metal layer is formed on the substrate by spray coating metal powder over the substrate and performing selective laser melting on the metal powder. A patterned dielectric layer separates the first and second metal layers and the magnetic core.

Provided are inverse phase allotrope rare earth (IPARE) magnets, methods of forming thereof, and applications of IPARE magnets. Unlike conventional samarium-cobalt magnets, IPARE magnets maintain their hexagonal lattice structures over a range of equiatomic compositions, such as when concentrations of different elements are within 10 atomic % of each other. An IPARE magnet may comprise cobalt, iron, copper, nickel, and samarium and a concentration of cobalt may be between 17-27 atomic %. An IPARE magnet may be substantially free from zirconium and/or titanium. An IPARE magnet may be formed by quenching a molten mixture of its components. The quenching may be performed in a magnetic field. After quenching, the IPARE magnet may be machined. Furthermore, IPARE magnets may be used as a structural element, e.g. in an electric motor.

A semiconductor structure includes a first plurality of slanted features within a first region of a substrate. Two or more magnetic guiding structures are embedded within the first region of the substrate. The first plurality of slanted features is located between the two or more magnetic guiding structures for varying a magnetic field strength around the first plurality of slanted features. A second plurality of slanted features are located within a second region of the substrate. The second region of the substrate is adjacent to the first region of the substrate. The second plurality of slanted features include a second orientation angle that is different from a first orientation angle of the first plurality of slanted features.

When a slurry 41 obtained by dispersing a rare-earth-compound powder in a solvent is applied to sintered magnet bodies 1, and dried to remove the solvent in the slurry and cause the surfaces of the sintered magnet bodies to be coated with the powder, and the sintered magnet bodies coated with the powder are heat treated to cause the rare-earth element to be absorbed by the sintered magnet bodies, the sintered magnet bodies having had the slurry applied thereto are dried by being irradiated with near infrared radiation having a wavelength of 0.8-5 m, to remove the solvent in the slurry, and cause the surfaces of the sintered magnet bodies to be coated with the powder. As a result, the rare-earth-compound powder can be uniformly and efficiently applied to the surfaces of the sintered magnet bodies.
