Comparative studies of magnetoelectric susceptibility ($alpha$), magnetization ($M$), and magnetostriction ($u$) in TbMn$_{2}$O$_{5}$ reveal that the increment of $M$ owing to the field-induced Tb$^{3+}$ spin alignment coins a field-asymmetric line shape in the $alpha(H)$ curve, being conspicuous in a low temperature incommensurate phase but persistently subsisting in the entire ferroelectric phase. Correlations among electric polarization, $u$, and $M^{2}$ variation represent linear relationships, unambiguously showing the significant role of Tb magnetoelastic effects on the low field magnetoelectric phenomena of TbMn$_{2}$O$_{5}$. An effective free energy capturing the observed experimental features is also suggested.

We present a study of terahertz frequency magnetoelectric effect in ferrimagnetic pyroelectric CaBaCo$_4$O$_7$ and its Ni-doped variants. The terahertz absorption spectrum of these materials consists of spin excitations and low-frequency infrared-act
ive phonons. We studied the magnetic-field-induced changes in the terahertz refractive index and absorption in magnetic fields up to 17 T. We find that the magnetic field modulates the strength of infrared-active optical phonons near 1.2 and 1.6 THz. We use the Lorentz model of the dielectric function to analyze the measured magnetic-field dependence of the refractive index and absorption. We propose that most of the magnetoelectric effect is contributed by the optical phonons near 1.6 THz and higher-frequency resonances. Our experimental results can be used to construct and validate more detailed theoretical descriptions of magnetoelectricity in CaBaCo$_{4-x}$Ni$_x$O$_7$.
The transverse and longitudinal magnetoelectric susceptibilities (MES) were quantitatively determined for (001) heteroepitaxial BiFeO$_{3}$-CoFe$_{2}$O$_{4}$ nanostructures. Both of these MES values were sharply enhanced at magnetic fields below 6 kO
e and revealed asymmetric lineshapes with respect to the dc magnetic field, demonstrating the strain-induced magnetoelectric effect. The maximum transverse MES, which reached as high as $sim$60 mV/cm Oe, was about five times larger than the longitudinal MES. This observation signifies that transverse magnetostriction of the CoFe$_{2}$O$_{4}$ nanopillars is enhanced more than the bulk value due to preferred magnetic domain alignment along the [001] direction coming from compressive, heteroepitaxial strain.
We report temperature dependent magnetization and neutron diffraction measurements on the corundum related magnetoelectric antiferromagnet Mn$_{4}$Ta$_{2}$O$_{9}$. Measurements performed on a single crystalline specimen reveal that the magnetization
is anisotropic, and a weak ferromagnetic component emerges well within the antiferromagnetically ordered state. Powder neutron diffraction measurements indicate that the magnetic structure comprises of antiferromagnetically coupled ferromagnetic chains of Mn$^{2+}$ spins aligned along the trigonal $c$ axis, in contrast to that reported in other isostructural members of this family. Magnetic measurements performed under a periodic electric field indicate that the magnetoelectric response is also anisotropic, with this coupling along the trigonal $c$ axis and that perpendicular to it having different signs.
The single-site anisotropy vanishes for the spin-1/2 as a consequence of Kramers degeneracy. We argue that similar property holds for the magnetically induced electric polarization P, which should depend only on the relative orientation of spins in t
he bonds but not on the direction of each individual spin. Thus, for insulating multiferroic compounds, P can be decomposed in terms of pairwise isotropic, antisymmetric, and anisotropic contributions, which can be rigorously derived in the framework of the superexchange (SE) theory, in an analogy with the spin Hamiltonian. The SE theory also allows us to identify the microscopic mechanism, which stands behind each contribution. The most controversial and intriguing one is antisymmetric or spin-current mechanism. In this work, we propose that the disputed magnetoelectric (ME) properties of Ba2CuGe2O7 can be explained solely by the spin-current mechanism, while other contributions are either small or forbidden by symmetry. First we explicitly show how the cycloidal spin order induces the experimentally observed P in the direction perpendicular to the xy plane, which can be naturally explained by the spin-current mechanism operating in the out-of-plane bonds. Then, we unveil previously overlooked ME effect, where the application of the magnetic field perpendicular to the plane not only causes the incommensurate-commensurate transition, but also flips P into the plane due to the spin-current mechanism operating in the neighboring bonds within this plane. In both cases, the magnitude and direction of P can be controlled by rotating the spin pattern in the xy plane. Our analysis is based on a realistic spin model, which was rigorously derived from the first-principles calculations and supplemented with the new algorithm for the construction of localized Wannier functions obeying the crystallographic symmetry of Ba2CuGe2O7.
The crystal structure of the double tungstate NaFe(WO$_4$)$_2$ arises from that of the spin-driven multiferroic MnWO$_4$ by inserting non-magnetic Na layers. NaFe(WO$_4$)$_2$ exhibits a three-dimensional incommensurate spin-spiral structure at low te
mperature and zero magnetic field, which, however, competes with commensurate order induced by magnetic field. The incommensurate zero-field phase corresponds to the condensation of a single irreducible representation but it does not imply ferroelectric polarization because spirals with opposite chirality coexist. Sizable anharmonic modulations emerge in this incommensurate structure, which are accompanied by large magneto-elastic anomalies, while the onset of the harmonic order is invisible in the thermal expansion coefficient. In magnetic fields applied along the monoclinic axis, we observe a first-order transition to a commensurate structure that again is accompanied by large magneto-elastic effects. The large magnetoelastic coupling, a reduction of the $b$ lattice parameter, is thus associated only with the commensurate order. Upon releasing the field at low temperature, the magnetic order transforms to another commensurate structure that considerably differs from the incommensurate low-temperature phase emerging upon zero-field cooling. The latter phase, which exhibits a reduced ordered moment, seems to be metastable.
