Only few magnetoelectric materials, where magnetism and ferroelectricity are coupled, are known to exist at room temperature, and in most cases the magnetoelectric coupling is weak. The discovery of strong room-temperature magnetoelectric coupling in Sr3Co2Fe24O41 at low magnetic fields is therefore a significant advance towards the practical application of multiferroics.
