Communicating skyrmions as the main mechanism underlying skyrmionium (meta)stability in quasi-two-dimensional chiral magnets

Kaito Nakamura, Andrey O. Leonov

We re-examine the internal structure of skyrmioniums stabilized in quasi-two-dimensional chiral magnets with easy-axis uniaxial anisotropy. Skyrmioniums are particle-like states of…

Tilted Spirals and Low Temperature Skyrmions in Cu2OSeO3

M. Crisanti, A. O. Leonov, R. Cubitt +4

The bulk helimagnet Cu2OSeO3 represents a unique example in the family of B20 cubic helimagnets exhibiting a tilted spiral and skyrmion phase at low temperatures when the magnetic…

Field-driven metamorphoses of isolated skyrmions within the conical state of cubic helimagnets

Andrey O. Leonov, Catherine Pappas, Ivan I. Smalyukh

Topologically stable field configurations appear in many fields of physics, from elementary particles to condensed matter and cosmology. During the last decade, chiral liquid cryst…

Evolution of Helimagnetic Correlations when approaching the Quantum Critical Point of MnFeSi

Catherine Pappas, Andrey O. Leonov, Lars J. Bannenberg +3

We present a comprehensive investigation of the evolution of helimagnetic correlations in MnFeSi with increasing doping. By combining polarised neutron scattering and h…

Field and anisotropy driven transformations of spin spirals in cubic skyrmion hosts

Andrey O. Leonov, Catherine Pappas, Istvan Kézsmárki

We discuss distinctive features of spiral states in bulk chiral magnets such as MnSi and CuOSeO that stem from the effect of the cubic magneto-crystalline anisotropy. First…

Stability of in-plane and out-of-plane chiral skyrmions in epitaxial MnSi(111)/Si(111) thin films: surface twists versus easy-plane anisotropy

Andrey O. Leonov, Ivan M. Tambovtcev, Igor S. Lobanov +1

The revisited theoretical phase diagrams for thin films of cubic helimagnets with the easy-plane anisotropy are shown to have different topology as previously reported [Phys. Rev.…
