Observation of Magnetic Radial Vortex Nucleation in a Multilayer Stack with Tunable Anisotropy
Abstract Recently discovered exotic magnetic configurations, namely magnetic solitons appearing in the presence of bulk or interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction (i-DMI), have excited scientists to explore their potential applications in emerging spintronic technologies such as race-track mag...
