We report the direct observation of surface magnetization domains of the magnetoelectric Cr
2 O 3 using photoemission electron microscopy with magnetic circular dichroism contrast
and magnetic force microscopy. The domain pattern is strongly affected by the applied
electric field conditions. Zero-field cooling results in an equal representation of the two
domain types, while electric-field cooling selects one dominant domain type. These

We report the direct observation of surface magnetization domains of the magnetoelectric using photoemission electron microscopy with magnetic circular dichroism contrast and magnetic force microscopy. The domain pattern is strongly affected by the applied electric field conditions. Zero-field cooling results in an equal representation of the two domain types, while electric-field cooling selects one dominant domain type. These observations confirm the existence of surface magnetization, required by symmetry in magnetoelectric antiferromagnets.
