Skyrmion-based Magnetic Traps for Ultracold Atoms
arXiv:2001.03285 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.101.053428
Abstract
We show that the stray field generated by isolated magnetic skyrmions can be used to trap ultracold atoms. Specially, ring-shaped and double-well trapping potentials for ultracold atoms can be created by combining the field from two isolated skyrmions. The geometry size, potential barrier, trapping frequency and Majorana loss rate of these magnetic traps can be tuned by the external magnetic field or device configuration. The results here could be useful to develop atomtronics devices by manipulating the magnetic skyrmions with modern spintronics techniques.
