In situ Electric Field Skyrmion Creation in Magnetoelectric CuOSeO
Ping Huang, Marco Cantoni, Alex Kruchkov +4
Magnetic skyrmions are localized nanometric spin textures with quantized winding numbers as the topological invariant. Rapidly increasing attention has been paid to the investigati…

Laser-Induced Skyrmion Writing and Erasing in an Ultrafast Cryo-Lorentz Transmission Electron Microscopy
G. Berruto, I. Madan, Y. Murooka +11
We demonstrate that light-induced heat pulses of different duration and energy can write skyrmions in a broad range of temperatures and magnetic field in FeGe. Using a combination…

Magnetic skyrmions and skyrmion clusters in the helical phase of CuOSeO
Jan Müller, Jayaraman Rajeswari, Ping Huang +4
Skyrmions are nanometric spin whirls that can be stabilized in magnets lacking inversion symmetry. The properties of isolated skyrmions embedded in a ferromagnetic background have…
