Abstract
Terbium tetrafluoride micro- and nanopowders are synthesized. A drop in the Curie temperature of a nanosized sample is observed. The Curie temperature is TC = 2.88(4) K for a microsized sample and TC = 2.78(4) K for a nanosized sample. Experimental and theoretical field dependences of magnetization are obtained for a microsized sample in magnetic fields of up to 9 T at temperatures of 2 to 300 K.
