In this work, a consortium of physicists from SPINTEC and York addressed the challenge of nucleating quantitatively proven topological magnetic textures in compensated magnets with zero net magnetization. It paves the way for extending the study of topological spin textures beyond ferromagnets, into materials with intriguing electrodynamic properties, such as antiferromagnets and altermagnets.   Topologically […]

The setting of spin textures in antiferromagnets (AFMs) provides a potential route to antiferromagnetic spintronic devices with non-collinear spin states such as skyrmions, bubbles and domain walls. In this work, a consortium of physicists from SPINTEC and York establish a solution for overcoming the challenge of nucleating localized real-space spin textures in AFMs, promoting the […]
