IHalbach Array luluhlu lwemagnethi oluvelisa umhlaba ophakamileyo wemagnethi usebenzisa imagnethi esisigxina, ecwangciswe ngevector yendawo ejikelezayo enemagnethi enefuthe lokujolisa kunye nokwandisa indawo yemagnethi kwelinye icala, ngelixa irhoxisa kwelinye icala. IiHalbach Arrays ziyakwazi ukufezekisa uxinaniso oluphezulu kakhulu kunye nolufanayo lwe-flux ngaphandle kokufuna igalelo lamandla okanye ukupholisa, okuya kufuneka i-electromagnetic.
I-Halbach array lulungiselelo olukhethekileyo lweemagnethi ezisisigxina elenza umhlaba wemagnethi kwelinye icala loluhlu lomelele, ngelixa urhoxisa ibala ukuya kufutshane neqanda kwelinye icala. Oku kwahluke kakhulu kwimagnethi ejikeleze umazibuthe omnye. Ngomazibuthe omnye, unamandla alinganayo omhlaba wemagnethi macala omabini umazibuthe, njengoko kubonisiwe ngezantsi:
Imagnethi enye iboniswa ngasekhohlo, kunye nepali engasentla ijonge phezulu. Amandla entsimi, aboniswa sisikali sombala, aqine ngokulinganayo phezulu nasezantsi kwemagnethi. Ngokwahlukileyo, uluhlu lweHalbach oluboniswe ngasekunene lunentsimi eyomeleleyo phezulu, kunye nentsimi ebuthathaka ngokufanelekileyo ezantsi. Imagnethi enye iboniswa apha njengeetyhubhu ezi-5 ezifana ne-Halbach array, kodwa nazo zonke iipali ezisemantla zikhomba phezulu. Ngokwemagnethi, oku kuyafana nemagnethi enye ende.
Umphumo wafunyanwa okokuqala nguJohn C. Mallinson ngo-1973, kwaye ezi "icala elinye lokuhamba" zichazwe okokuqala njengomdla (ikhonkco lephepha le-IEEE). Ngeminyaka yee-1980, isazi sefiziksi uKlaus Halbach saqulunqa ngokuzimeleyo uluhlu lweHalbach ukuze kugxininiswe kwiiplanga zeesuntswana, ii-electron kunye nelases.
Amacandelo amaninzi obuchwepheshe bale mihla anikwa amandla yiHalbach array. Umzekelo, iisilinda zeHalbach zizisilinda ezizibuthe ezikwaziyo ukuvelisa imagnethi eqinile kodwa equlathe umhlaba. Ezi zisilinda zisetyenziswa kwizixhobo ezifana ne-brushless motors, i-magnetic couplings, kunye ne-high field particle focusing cylinders. Nokuba oomazibuthe befriji abalula zisebenzisa i-Halbach arrays-yomelele kwelinye icala, kodwa ayinakunamathela kwaphela kwelinye icala. Xa ubona umazibuthe onentsimi yamagnetic eyandisiweyo kwelinye icala kwaye yehla kwelinye icala, ujonga uluhlu lweHalbach lusebenza.
I-Honsen Magnetics ivelise umazibuthe osisigxina i-Halbach Arrays yokusetyenziswa kwemizi-mveliso nezobugcisa ixesha elide. Sisebenza ngokukhethekileyo kuyilo lobugcisa, ubunjineli kunye nokuveliswa kweendlela ezininzi, iisetyhula kunye ne-linear (iplanar) i-Halbach arrays kunye ne-Halbach-type magnetic assemblies, ukubonelela ngokucwangciswa kweepoleni ezininzi kunye nokugxininiswa kwentsimi ephezulu kunye ne-uniformity ephezulu.
