Abstract = {{The new frontier for spintronics is the realization of devices in which
   the spin can be controlled by electric fields. Multiferroics, materials
   exhibiting strong interplay between spin and orbital degrees of freedom,
   are candidates for the realization of such a paradigm. In this work, we
   study the magnetoelectric coupling in epitaxial BiMnO3 thin films which
   exhibit a large saturation magnetization. By combining X-ray absorption
   spectroscopy data and theoretical modeling, we demonstrate that BiMnO3
   thin films have an improper magnetoelectric behavior, characterized by
   competing antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic correlations. As a
   consequence, we show that in these materials the Mn-3d orbital and
   magnetic orders can be tuned via the ferroelectric polarization, opening
   perspectives for the realization of novel spintronic devices.}},
