Tuning the stability and the skyrmion Hall effect in magnetic skyrmions by adjusting their exchange strengths with magnetic disks

Abstract

Magnetic skyrmion is a promising candidate for the future information technology due to its small size, topological protection and the ultralow current density needed to displace it. The applications, however, are currently limited by its narrow phase diagram and the skyrmion Hall effect which prevents the skyrmion motion at high speed. In this work, we study the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction induced magnetic skyrmion that exchange coupled with magnetic nano-disks utilizing the micromagnetic simulation. We find that the stability and the skyrmion Hall effect of the created skyrmion can be tuned effectively with the coupling strength, thus opens the space to optimize the performance of the skyrmion based devices.
