Bring Skyrmions Back on Track

Year: 2025

Type: dissertation

Abstract: Skyrmions, topologically protected bubbles of magnetization are envisioned as next generation data carriers. For this purpose, their generation, motion and annihilation need to be controlled in a reliable manner. In this work we first produce and experimentally scrutinize magnetic thin films to find a suitable skyrmion host system. Then we engineer these skyrmion hosting films, employing focused ion beam irradiation, to initiate skyrmion nucleation and guide their current driven motion.
