The dynamics of bimeron skyrmions in easy-plane magnets induced by a spin supercurrent
arXiv:1901.00094 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.99.224406
Abstract
We theoretically study the interaction of an isolated bimeron skyrmion in quasi-two-dimensional easy-plane magnets with a surrounding spin superfluid associated with spontaneously broken U(1) spin-rotational symmetry, revealing that skyrmion energy depends on the local spin current flowing in its background. The finding leads us to propose to manipulate a skyrmion energy landscape via a spin supercurrent, which can be controlled non-locally by varying the magnitudes of spin-current injection and ejection through the boundaries. Two exemplary cases are discussed: a steady-state motion of a skyrmion induced by a uniform force and a skyrmion motion localized along a one-dimensional racetrack. We envision that a skyrmion interacting with a spin superfluid can serve as a robust point-like information carrier that can be operated with minimal dissipation.
