High‐resolution magnetoelectric imaging is used to demonstrate electrical control of the perpendicular local magnetization associated with 125 nm‐wide magnetic stripe domains in 100‐nm‐thick Ni films. This magnetoelectric coupling is achieved in zero magnetic field using strain from ferroelectric Ba...
