Three-dimensional Topological Superstructure of Magnetic Hopfions Threaded by Meron Strings in Easy-plane Magnets

Shoya Kasai, Kotaro Shimizu, Shun Okumura +2

Topological spin textures exhibit a hierarchical nature. For instance, magnetic skyrmions, which possess a particle-like nature, can aggregate to form superstructures such as skyrm…

Soliton penetration from edges in a monoaxial chiral magnet

Kotaro Shimizu, Shun Okumura, Yasuyuki Kato +1

The magnetic solitons such as chiral solitons, magnetic skyrmions, and magnetic hopfions, exhibiting particlelike nature widely emerge in magnets depending on spatial dimension. As…

Emergent electric field from magnetic resonances in a one-dimensional chiral magnet

Kotaro Shimizu, Shun Okumura, Yasuyuki Kato +1

The emergent electric field (EEF) is a fictitious electric field acting on conduction electrons through the Berry phase mechanism. The EEF is generated by the dynamics of noncollin…

Crystallization dynamics of magnetic skyrmions in a frustrated itinerant magnet

Kotaro Shimizu, Gia-Wei Chern

We investigate the phase ordering kinetics of skyrmion lattice (SkL) in a metallic magnet. The SkL can be viewed as a superposition of magnetic stripes whose periods are determined…

Phase degree of freedom and topology in multiple- spin textures

Kotaro Shimizu, Shun Okumura, Yasuyuki Kato +1

A periodic array of topological spin textures, such as skyrmions and hedgehogs, is called the multiple- spin texture, as it is represented by a superposition of multiple spin de…

Phase shift, ellipticity, angle, and topological number in skyrmion lattices

Kotaro Shimizu, Shun Okumura, Yasuyuki Kato +1

We theoretically study skyrmion lattices realized in a Kondo lattice model on a triangular lattice, focusing on the phase, ellipticity, and angle of the constituent multiple- wa…

Phase transitions between helices, vortices, and hedgehogs driven by spatial anisotropy in chiral magnets

Kotaro Shimizu, Shun Okumura, Yasuyuki Kato +1

Superpositions of spin helices can yield topological spin textures, such as two-dimensional vortices and skyrmions, and three-dimensional hedgehogs. Their topological nature and sp…
