Abstract
Isotropic helimagnets are known to host a diverse range of chiral magnetic states. In 2016, F.N. Rybakov et al. theorized the presence of a surface-pinned stacked spin spiral phase [F.N. Rybakov et al., 2016 New J. Phys. 18 045002], which has yet to be observed experimentally. Here we present experimental evidence for the observation of this state in lamellae of FeGe using resonant x-ray holographic imaging data and micromagnetic simulations. The identification of this state has significant implications for the stability of other coexisting spin textures, and will help complete our understanding of helimagnetic systems.
