Magnetic properties of copper metaborate CuB2O4

The results of experimental research on the magnetic and resonance properties, heat capacity, muon spin relaxation, and neutron scattering of single-crystal copper metaborate CuB2O4 are reviewed. The results of a symmetry analysis and of modeling by the method of the phenomenological thermodynamic potential are presented. The magnetic structure of the crystal in various temperature intervals of the magnetic ordering region is discussed.
