Abstract The field (0–5.5 T) and temperature (2–300 K) dependences of the magnetization of LiTmF4 powders with particle sizes of 1 μm and 56–400 μm are investigated experimentally and theoretically. It is concluded that a transition layer exists between the thulium ions in the bulk and the ions at the surface. Two magnetic-field-induced structural phase transitions are observed at low temperatures, and the temperature dependence of the critical magnetic fields is established.
