  Exchange bias is a unidirectional magnetic anisotropy that often arise from
interfacial interaction of a ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic layers. In
this article, we show that a metallic layer with spin-orbit coupling can
induces an exchange bias via an interface magnetoelectric effect. In linear
response regime, the interface magnetoelectric effect is induced by spin-orbit
couplings that arises from the broken symmetry of the system. Furthermore, we
demonstrate that the exchange bias can be controlled by electric field.
