Engineering skyrmions in transition-metal multilayers for spintronics

Materials possessing anisotropic spin exchange interactions can support skyrmion quasiparticle spin textures, which may be exploited in nanomagnetic devices. Here, the authors predict the appearance of skyrmions in multilayered thin films of biatomic Fe sandwiched between 4d and 5dtransition metals.
