Abstract
Topological magnetic defects in multiferroic materials acquire an electric charge or dipole moment due to the inverse Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya mechanism. This magnetoelectric coupling makes possible to excite large-amplitude collective motion of topological magnetic textures with an oscillating electric field. Here, I discuss electric excitation of a polar optical mode in a vortex-antivortex crystal and the electrically-induced spin precession in a magnetic skyrmion, which gives rise to rotation of skyrmions around each other and a translational motion of skyrmion-antiskyrmion pairs. The electric manipulation of magnetic topological defects in Mott insulators can find applications in magnetoelectric memory and logical devices.
