Magnetic whirls pave the way for energy-efficient computing

Phys.org  September 11, 2023 Magnetic skyrmions have garnered considerable interest due to a variety of electromagnetic responses that are governed by the topology. The topology that creates a microscopic gyro tropic force also causes detrimental effects, such as the skyrmion Hall effect, which is a well-studied phenomenon highlighting the influence of topology on the deterministic dynamics and drift motion. Furthermore, the gyrotropic force is anticipated to have a substantial impact on stochastic diffusive motion; however, the predicted repercussions have yet to be demonstrated, even qualitatively. An international team of researchers (Germany, Japan, Sweden, Czech Republic) demonstrated enhanced thermally activated diffusive […]
