Summary: The study reveals that the linear magnetoelectric effect allows for selection or switching between antiferromagnetic states through the application of electric and magnetic fields, which are preserved by energy barriers. Experimental results show that the field and temperature variation of the coercive field for switching is similar to the theoretical model. Investigation into the dynamics of antiferromagnetic domain switching confirms a power-law frequency dependence, indicating one-dimensional domain wall propagation.

Summary: This paper analyzes the influence of hard and soft admixture on the functional properties of multiferroic ceramic composites. Two composite materials were synthesized via solid-state reaction route, with PZT-type materials as the ferroelectric component and nickel-zinc ferrite as the magnetic component. It is found that the type of doping (soft vs hard admixture) has significant effects on the dielectric, ferroelectric, electromechanical, magnetic, and magnetoelectric properties of the composites. PZT with a soft admixture shows advantages in terms of effective polarization and high magnetoelectric effect, while PZT with a hard admixture demonstrates better stability of physical parameters.

Summary: Mutual modulating ferroelectric polarization and magnetization have the potential for new-type low-energy consumption, high-density memory, and logic processors. In this study, BFCNT and LSMO were used to form environmentally friendly sandwich films on flexible FTO substrates. The ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, and magnetoelectric coupling effect of the films were investigated. A dynamic micromagnetic moment model and a dipole force model were proposed to study the intermodulation of both ferromagnetism and ferroelectricity, providing new insights into the underlying physics of ME coupling.

Summary: In a quasi-two-dimensional planar antiferromagnet BaNi2(PO4)(2), a long-range antiferromagnetic ordering of Ni2+ ions at T-N = 24 K was observed. Interestingly, an electric polarization proportional to the applied magnetic fields was induced at T-N, demonstrating the linear magnetoelectric effect with a coupling coefficient of 1.67 ps/m in BaNi2(PO4)(2). The magnetic symmetry associated with the magnetoelectric effect (1) over bar' allows all tensor elements of the magnetoelectric susceptibility.

Summary: In this work, the effect of inhomogeneous magnetoelectric interaction on the distribution of magnetization in insulating ferromagnetic films with strong easy-plane anisotropy is theoretically studied. It is found that structures of various topologies can form in such films depending on the magnitude of the applied electric field. The optimal control of the magnetic structure can be achieved by the field of a charged filament. All stable and metastable states of the system are studied in detail depending on the field strength and material parameters of the film.

Summary: A dense system of independent oscillators connected only by interacting with the same cavity excitation mode will radiate coherently in a phenomenon called superradiance. Experimental investigations on yttrium iron garnet thin films show that with increasing film thickness, losses due to coherent radiation dominate the system's internal broadening.

Summary: The absorption mechanisms in orthoferrite TbFeO3 were studied using various spectroscopy techniques. The spectra were analyzed using the oscillator model and four-parameter model, and the parameters were determined. The main absorption processes were identified, including contributions from phonons, multi-phonon processes, electron transitions, and antiferromagnetic resonance modes. The electrodynamic response in TbFeO3 showed significant absorption in the THz range due to multi-phonon processes, surpassing optical phonon contribution by an order of magnitude at room temperature.

Summary: In TbFeO3 orthoferrite, a magnetic field H-b along the a axis induces an electric polarization P-a(H-b) at temperatures below the antiferromagnetic ordering temperature for the terbium subsystem. This polarization is accompanied by anomalies associated with metamagnetic and spin-reorientation transitions. The observed effects can be qualitatively explained by considering the allowed magnetoelectric interactions in the field-induced magnetic structures.

Summary: Experimental and theoretical studies were carried out on the magnetoelectric properties of three types of Fe langasite multiferroics. The induced polarization was found to depend on both the magnitude and orientation of the magnetic field. The group theoretical analysis revealed a relationship between polarization and magnetic order parameters. At high magnetic fields, the behavior of electric polarization changes qualitatively and is strongly influenced by the magnetic field orientation.

Summary: The study revealed a low-frequency phonon in langasites that softens at lower temperatures, with its dielectric contribution and temperature dependence being the main factors contributing to the high static dielectric permittivity observed in these systems. Increasing mass of rare-earth substitutes causes further softening of this phonon mode, suggesting langasites may be close to a structural instability at low temperatures. Additionally, applying a magnetic field to a diluted Ho-langasite sample resulted in a shift in the strong absorption band at THz frequencies associated with this soft lattice mode, indicating possible spin-lattice effects in these systems.
