17. We observed another magnetic relaxation in a temperature region between 50 and 120 K; however, it was omitted for simplification.

27. On the basis of the fitting analysis (n μ2 / ε0 =135 K), we can estimate the density (n) of the magnetoelectrically active Fe2+ sites; the dipole moment (μ) produced by the electron hopping between the nearest-neighbor octahedron sites is 30 D and hence n is estimated to be 1.7× 1024 m-3 or 2.0× 10-4 / (octahedronsite).
28. The Δχ curves in Fig. were calculated by the difference between ε at 5 and 106 Hz as a function of angle.
