The present invention provides a permanent magnet, comprising a cylinder
formed with a permanent magnetic material. The cylinder comprises along a
radial direction, a magnetic core and a magnetic sheath that are coaxial.
The magnetic core is assembled in the magnetic sheath. The magnetization
direction of the magnetic core is axial direction, and the magnetization
direction of the magnetic sheath changes step by step from a direction
which is parallel to the magnetization direction of the magnetic core in
one end to a direction which is orthogonal to the magnetization direction
of the magnetic core in the other end, along the axial direction of the
cylinder. Moreover, a magnetic device for use in MRI using the magnet and
manufacturing methods for the permanent magnet and the magnetic device
are also provided in the present invention. With the permanent magnet,
magnetization strength in the working area generated by the magnetic
device for use in MRI can amount to more than 0.5-0.6 T.
