Dynamics of a nanoscale ferromagnetic vortex

We propose a ferromagnetic vortex stabilized by the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii--Moriya interaction (iDMI) and investigate its properties through theoretical analysis and micromagnetic simulations. Our results demonstrate that this vortex can remain stable even in nanoscale ferromagnetic disks with radii below $5\,\text{nm}$---far smaller than those of conventional nanodot vortices having about $1\,μ\text{m}$ radius. We analytically solve the nonlinear equation of motion describing the anharmonic vortex oscillation, and identify the critical frequency that determines the stability of the driven oscillation of the vortex. This nanoscale vortex exhibits conventional properties of microscale vortices, including gyrotropic oscillation and resonance frequency shift under an out-of-plane magnetic field. It also exhibits unconventional behaviors, such as a strongly anharmonic potential, nonlinear oscillations, and a Duffing-oscillator-like response under the external AC bias.

Current-driven dynamics of antiferromagnetic domain-wall skyrmions

Domain-wall skyrmions are magnetic solitons embedded in a domain wall that are topologically equivalent to skyrmions. Here, we theoretically study antiferromagnetic domain-wall skyrmions and their current-driven motion within the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert phenomenology, and verify our findings with micromagnetic simulations. While the skyrmion Hall effect is expected to be suppressed in the current-induced motion of antiferromagnetic domain-wall skyrmions, we observe a finite Hall angle, which originates from the anisotropic spin configuration of domain-wall skyrmions. The skyrmion Hall effect is, however, conditionally suppressed and the motion aligns with the current applied in certain directions, which can be interpreted as principal axes of a domain-wall skyrmion that is easily identified from the symmetry of the spin configuration. Our work on antiferromagnetic domain-wall skyrmions shows that the dynamics of spin textures endowed with multiple soliton characteristics can be unconventional, which is envisaged to enrich the field of topological solitons.
