We study the magnetoelectric coupling for the [001]-oriented (LaMnO3)2/(BaTiO3)5/(SrMnO3)2 superlattice, by means of the density functional theory. An interesting transition between ferromagnetic ordering and antiferromagnetic ordering is demonstrated by switching ferroelectric polarization in short...
