Abstrakt: Optical absorption spectra of the trigonal crystal of TbFe3(BO3)4 in the vicinity of the 7F65D4 transition in a Tb3+ ion were studied as a function of temperature (2–70 K) and magnetic field strength (0–60 kOe) at 2 K. The splitting of the excited states of Tb3+ due to both the magnetic ordering of iron and an external magnetic field was determined. Abrupt splitting of the absorption lines of Tb3+ at temperature TN of the magnetic ordering of the subsystem of iron was revealed, suggesting that the nature of such splitting is not entirely magnetic.
