Abstract

The features of magnetization of rare-earth multiferroic PrFe3(BO3)4 with the singlet ground state have been investigated theoretically. The magnetic anisotropy of the crystal has been studied. The temperature dependences of anisotropy constants have been calculated. The phase H-T diagram has been constructed. The dependences of the behavior of magnetization vectors of magnetic sublattices on the external magnetic field have been obtained. The magnetoelectric effect has been investigated, and the dependences of polarization on the temperature and field have been found for its various orientations. The theoretical data have been compared with the experimental data and their good agreement has been established.
