Abstract
MnNb3S6 is a monoaxial chiral magnet and stabilizes magnetic solitons in the presence of a magnetic field (H). The number of solitons can be controlled by varying H. Furthermore, MnNb3S6 exhibits magnetization relaxation due to soliton annihilation, that is, a nonequilibrium chiral soliton lattice (CSL) state. In this study, we observed soliton locking phenomena in a CSL state on bulk MnNb3S6 crystal, as on micro-processed crystals of CrNb3S6. Thus, we could create nonequilibrium and equilibrium CSL states and switch between them. A numerical simulation revealed that the soliton number was preserved in the soliton locking region; thus, magnetization relaxation was not observed.
