Densely packed skyrmions stabilized at zero magnetic field by indirect exchange coupling in multilayers
arxiv(2022)
摘要
Room-temperature stabilization of skyrmions in magnetic multilayered systems
is the result of a fine balance between different magnetic interactions namely
symmetric and antisymmetric exchange, dipolar, perpendicular magnetic
anisotropy as well as, in most cases, Zeeman through an applied external field.
Such field-driven stabilization approach is not compatible with most of the
anticipated skyrmion based applications, e.g. skyrmion memories, logic or
neuromorphic computing which motivates a reduction or a cancellation of field
requirements. Here we present a method to stabilize at room-temperature and
zero-field, a densely packed skyrmion phase in ferromagnetic multilayers with
moderate number of repetitions. To this aim, we finely tune the multilayer
parameters to stabilize a dense skyrmion phase. Then, relying on the interlayer
electronic coupling to an adjacent bias magnetic layer with strong
perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and uniform magnetization, we demonstrate the
stabilization of sub-60 nm diameter skyrmion at zero-field with adjustable
skyrmion density.
