Spatial antiferromagnetic spin texture as a nano-oscillator

Abstract

We report a theoretical study of the localized spatial magnetization configuration, which is a confined spin configuration of the target skyrmion/hopfion type in an antiferromagnet with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, and then we solve the particular problem of self-oscillations of such a topological spin texture. Using the energy approach, a self-consistent account of inhomogeneity of the characteristics of the topological magnetic spin texture was carried out. On this basis, the equation of free oscillations of the confined spin configuration magnetization was derived and its quasi-classical solution was found. For a thin ring spin texture, the frequency, period of oscillations and relative amplitude of the main tone of oscillations are found. For the first time, we determined the topological mass, inertial mass and total energy of the main tone of oscillations of such spatial spin texture. The self-oscillatory process of a spatial spin texture is interpreted as a magnetic nano-oscillator.
