By considering the not as yet demonstrated piezomagnetoelec. (PME) effect as a magnetic field induced piezoelec. effect, an expt. is described, attempting at exciting elec. a LiCoPO₄ crystal at 4.2 K (i.e., below its Neel temp.; magnetic point group mmm') as a piezoelec. oscillator in a DC magnetic field of 10 kOe. No resonance was, however, detectable between 10 kHz and 13 MHz within the limits of experimental sensitivity.
