Topological spin-texture transitions in van der Waals magnets revealed by X-ray Fourier transform holography
Sourav Chowdhury, Soumyaranjan Dash, Michael Schneider +14
Nontrivial topological spin-textures, such as skyrmions, merons, bimerons, and skyrmioniums, are envisioned as robust building blocks for future memory and logic devices. Controlla…

Linear dichroic soft X-ray microscopy of ferroelectric stripe domains in epitaxial KNaNbO
M. Schneider, T. A. Butcher, S. Wagner +19
Functional properties of ferroelectric thin films are governed by domains that can be engineered by epitaxial strain. Soft X-ray microscopy can image domain structures with element…

A fluctuation-free pathway for a topological magnetic phase transition
Riccardo Battistelli, Lukas Körber, Kai Litzius +27
Topological magnetic textures are particle-like spin configurations stabilized by competing interactions. Their formation is commonly attributed to fluctuation-driven, first-order…
