The perpendicular exchange bias field, H₄₁, of the magnetoelectric heterostructure Cr₂O₃ (111) / (Co/Pt) ₃ changes sign after field cooling to below the N\'eel temperature of Cr₂O₃ in either parallel or antiparallel axial magnetic and electric freezing fields. The switching of H₄₁ is explained by magnetoelectrically induced antiferromagnetic single domains which extend to the interface, where the direction of their end spins controls the sign of H₄₁. Novel applications in magnetoelectronic devices seem possible.
