Stability and Phase Transition of Skyrmion Crystals Generated by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction
arXiv:1702.06841 · doi:10.1016/j.jmmm.2017.10.031
Abstract
We generate a crystal of skyrmions in two dimensions using a Heisenberg Hamiltonian including the ferromagnetic interaction J, the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction D, and an applied magnetic field H. The ground state (GS) is determined by minimizing the interaction energy. We show that the GS is a skyrmion crystal in a region of (D, H). The stability of this skyrmion crystalline phase at finite temperatures is shown by a study of the time-dependence of the order parameter using Monte Carlo simulations. We observe that the relaxation is very slow and follows a stretched exponential law. The skyrmion crystal phase is shown to undergo a transition to the paramagnetic state at a finite temperature.
