    At the first time, by the results of complex structural, thermodynamic, magnetic studies and theoretical modeling it was proved that cobalt-containing layered double hydroxyls (Co2+nAl3+) (n = 2, 3) with anions and water molecules intercalated between the layers are two-dimensional magnetics, which low-temperature magnetic behavior s determined by the cleavage and settlement of the lowest Co2+ doublets, which, in turn, depend on possible distortions of the surrounding hydroxyl octahedra. The material is considered promising for the design of complex artificial structures and nanocomposites.

    A new phenomenon has been discovered and scientifically described - the existence of dichroism in the basal plane in the easy axis magnetic state of the antiferromagnet HoFe3(BO3)4, which changes its sign when the direction of the external magnetic field is reversed. The detected effects are associated with a violation of the axial symmetry of the spiral structure of the magnetic moments of holmium in excited states. Rare-earth ferroborates have great prospects for modern technological applications due to their non-trivial magnetic properties and pronounced multiferroic effects.
