The /sup 10/B, /sup 11/B, and /sup 57/Fe spin-echo nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and magnetization experiments have been performed for naturally abundant and /sup 10/B-enriched Nd/sub 2/Fe/sub 14/B at 1.3 and 4.2 K for frequencies from 10 to 80 MHz. It was found from a comparison of NMR spectra in zero field and in an external field of 6.0 kOe that the hyperfine fields at the domain edges and at the domain-wall centers are nearly the same. This implies that the Fe hyperfine field anisotropy is small in this system. The presence of spin canting was verified by the result that the /sup 11/B NMR frequency shift due to the applied external magnetic field does not exactly follow ..gamma..(/sup 11/B)..delta..H. The NMR technique proves to be sensitive in detecting the trace of Fe precipitate in the Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets.
