The difference is the length of time to maturity. Treasury Notes mature in 10-years Treasury Bonds mature in 30-Years
The yield of a bond is the interest that it pays (annualized) divided by the purchase price of the bond (taking into account any discount or premium on the price). Treasury yield refers to the actual interest rate on bonds issued by the U.S. Treasury. Treasury yield is not a single number, because they issue bonds with many different maturities (from 1 month to 30 years); the yields on the 2-year and 10-year bonds are the most commonly-quoted benchmarks.
Treasury bonds (or T-Bonds) mature in ten years or longer. They have coupon payment every six months like T-Notes, and are commonly issued with maturity dates of ten and thirty years. The secondary market is highly liquid, so the yield on the most recent T-Bond offering was commonly used as a proxy for long-term interest rates in general. This role has largely been taken over by the 10-year note, as the size and frequency of long-term bond issues declined significantly in the 1990s and early 2000s. The U.S. Federal government stopped issuing the well-known 30-year Treasury bonds (often called long-bonds) on October 31, 2001. As the U.S. government used its budget surpluses to pay down the Federal debt in the late 1990s, the 10-year Treasury note began to replace the 30-year Treasury bond as the general, most-followed metric of the U.S. bond market. However, due to demand from pension funds and large, long-term institutional investors, along with a need to diversify the Treasury's liabilities - and also because the flatter yield curve meant that the opportunity cost of selling long-dated debt had dropped - the 30-year Treasury bond was re-introduced in February 2006 and is now issued quarterly. This will bring the U.S. in line with Japan and European governments issuing longer-dated maturities amid growing global demand from pension funds. Some countries, including France and the United Kingdom, have begun offering a 50-year bond, known as a Methuselah.an interest-bearing bond issued by the US Treasury.
