We wish to correct an error that appeared in our article “Multiferroics: Past, Present, and Future” (PHYSICS TODAY, October 2010, page 38). Hans Schmid’s work on multiferroics and magnetoelectrics was funded not by the Swiss Post Office but initially by the French National Center for Telecommunications Studies in the early 1960s and later in the 1980s and 1990s by the Swiss National Science Foundation. We apologize for the error and thank Schmid for bringing it to our attention.
