Abstract

A magnetic toron is a spatially localized three-dimensional spin texture composed of skyrmionic layers with two Bloch points at its two ends. The magnetic toron can, thus, be stabilized in chiral magnets using external fields. In this work, we studied the toron dynamics induced by electric currents in a cylindrical nanowire using micromagnetic simulations. We show that the toron performs a unidirectional motion in a nanowire where the current is applied along the wire direction. The current-induced toron motion can be divided into three regions: static region for a small current due to the pinning effect, toron moving region for a large current, and toron annihilation region for a large reversal current. Moreover, the moving direction can be tuned by the sign of Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction. Such peculiar dynamics indicates that the magnetic toron is a possible candidate as an information carrier.
