Abstract
A phenomenological approach to the theory of phase transitions induced by fluctuations in helicoidal ferromagnets with concentrational fluctuations is developed. For this purpose, random variables equal to one at a site ν occupied by a magnetic atom and zero otherwise are introduced into the Ginzburg–Landau functional. It is shown that, above the magnetic transition temperature (TC), due to concentrational effects, local magnetization is preserved, fluctuations of the helicoidal spin helix arise, and skyrmion states in the magnetic field are formed. The disappearance of the vortical states is due to the suppression of local magnetization by thermodynamic fluctuations at the temperature TS (>TC). The theoretical results explain the reasons for the significant expansion of the temperature range of skyrmion states in nonstoichiometric manganese monosilicide with manganese deficiency.
