Building traps for skyrmions by the incorporation of magnetic defects into nanomagnets: pinning and scattering traps by magnetic properties engineering

D. Toscano, S. A. Leonel, P. Z. Coura +1

In this work we have used micromagnetic simulations to report four ways to build traps for magnetic skyrmions. Magnetic defects have been modeled as local variations in the materia…
