, caused by cooling in the presence of an electrical current. The magnetization measured after the cooling becomes smaller by about 10-20% than that after cooling without a current. The current also affects the magnetic anisotropy below about 100 K; the magnetic coercivity is increased by about 10-20%. These phenomena may arise from a coexistence of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic domains, or a disturbance in the formation of charge-ordered domains. From the applied viewpoint, the enhancement of anisotropy by an electrical current offers a method for stabilizing magnetization other than the well-known method, i.e., exchange bias.

O
(R=Yb and Lu), which belongs to the homologous family of electronic ferroelectric RFe
O
. Magnetization measurements show ferrimagnetic ordering at the Neel temperature (T
) of about 270 K, which is slightly higher than that of RFe
O
(T
about 230-250 K). Observation of spin glass and exchange bias shows a coexistence of ferromagnetic and antiferromagneticinteractions, similarly to RFe
O
. This situation gives rise to a complex magnetic change and a broad peak of magnetic entropy change. Some characteristics, such as refrigeration temperatures higher than in RFe
O
, seem to offer a possibility of this system to applications.

. Its magnetic transition temperature was 250 K. The magnetization along the c-axis was much larger than that within the ab plane, indicating the Ising character of this system. The field-cooled magnetization became negative below 10 K. This was explained in terms of an antiparallel coupling between Yb and Fe moments. Magnetocaloric effects were also observed. The change of entropy was found to show a broad peak with a width of 100 K, which is favorable to application.

O
(

ions (
=Tm, Yb, Lu and In) exhibit large EB fields (
1 kOe) below
100-150 K. This property is rooted in a magnetically glassy state, arising from the competition between ferro- and antiferromagnetic domain interactions. In addition, the exchange bias field tends to be more enhanced for smaller
ions. Hence, the EB is controlled by the substitution at the
-site in this series.

CuO

CuO
(about 10000 at room temperature). The imaginary part of dielectric response showed the activation energy of about 0.1 eV, suggesting that the dielectric response is brought about by a transfer of Cu-3d electrons.

Al
. Below the phase transition temperature
K, a clear modulation of
polarization due to an internal field is observed, indicating that magnetic ordering takes place. Compared with the internal field expected from the effective magnetic moment in the disordered state, the observed internal field at the

) and/or the nearest pair of Ce magnetic moments are mutually anti-parallel. The
-dependence of the internal field is somewhat peculiar, suggesting that another ordering is taking place as well.

O
,which has been suggested to show a heavy-fermion-like behavioral though it possess no f electron. A Lorentzian shape of the Cu NQR line with a narrow width implies that no magnetic ordering appears, at least, down to 5 K. The spin-lattice relaxation rate of the Cu nuclei probes a change of the Cu 3
electron nature, resulting in the Fermi liquid state at a low temperature. These facts strongly support that the heavy fermion picture is available in the concerned compound.

O
, which shows a new type of ferroelectiricy (i.e., electronic ferroelectiricy) at 330 K owing to real-space charge ordering of Fe ions. In this work, we have investigated detailed magnetic properties of a single crystalline LuFe
O
. It was found that this oxide shows the magnetic transition temperature of 270 K, which is higher than that of the corresponding RFe
O
(LuFe
O
), 240-250 K. AC magnetic susceptibility measurements exhibited spin-glass behavior at around the magnetic transition temperature. In addition, exchange bias and magnetocaloric effect were observed at low temperatures, similarly to RFe
O
. These phenomena are explained in connection with several factors, such as a coexistence of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions between Fe ions.
