Abstract

Magnetic skyrmions are stable and topologically protected spin textures which have been observed in several chiral magnetic materials, and the resonant excitations of magnetic skyrmions have become a hot research topic for potential applications in future microwave devices. In this work, we investigate in-plane microwave-induced topological dynamics of a magnetic skyrmion in a nanodisk by using micromagnetic simulations. It is found that the resonant excitations of the skyrmion are elliptical dynamics which contain counterclockwise and clockwise modes by applying different frequencies of the microwave field. The conversion between these two elliptical modes is achieved by a transition to linear vibration. In addition, we demonstrate that the off-centered process of the skyrmion can be controlled by applying different phases of the microwave field. Finally, we discuss the different topological excitations of four types of skyrmions. Our results present the understanding of topological skyrmion dynamics and may also provide a method to control skyrmions in nanodevices.
