A stator of an electric motor has a cylinder-shaped stator core. First core teeth and second core teeth are alternately arranged in the circumferential direction on the inner peripheral surface of the stator core. The second core teeth each have a cross-sectional shape perpendicular to the central axis of the stator core different from the cross-sectional shape of the first core tooth. A coil is assembled to the first tooth. The coil is assembled to one of the first core tooth and the second core tooth. The width of the second core tooth is reduced with a step of a curved surface at a boundary between the tip end portion and a portion behind of the tip end portion.
