Coupled gyration modes and propagation in one-dimensional periodic skyrmion arrays as reliable information carrier

Abstract

We report on a micromagnetic numerical simulation study of dynamic couplings between neighboring skyrmions in narrow-width nanostrips. We explored the coupled gyration modes and their characteristic dispersions in terms of the interdistance between the neighboring skyrmions. The application of perpendicular magnetic fields, importantly, allows for control/modification of the dispersion of the coupled modes. Coupled skyrmion gyration modes provide a new type of efficient, reliable, fast, low-power-consumption information-signal propagation in narrow-width straight and curved nanostrips, as driven predominantly by the exchange interaction between individual nano-scale skyrmions.
