Abstract

Magnetic-field-induced phase transitions in single crystals of the rare-earth ferroborates GdFe3(BO3)4 and NdFe3(BO3)4 have been studied by measuring magnetoelectric dependences and torque curves. These phase transitions can serve as one of the possible mechanisms for magnetic control of electric polarization. Magnetic phase transitions in GdFe3(BO3)4 are analyzed theoretically.
