Generation of magnetic skyrmions through pinning effect
arXiv:1809.07149 · doi:10.1142/S0217984919500404
Abstract
Based on analytical estimation and lattice simulation, a proposal is made that magnetic skyrmions can be generated through the pinning effect in 2D chiral magnetic materials, in absence of an external magnetic field or magnetic anisotropy. In our simulation, stable magnetic skyrmions can be generated in the pinning areas. The properties of the skyrmions are studied for various values of ferromagnetic exchange strength and the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction strength.
