Colossal topological Hall effect at the transition between isolated and lattice-phase interfacial skyrmions
Previous studies of skyrmions in thin film architectures have shown widely-varying magnitudes of the topological Hall effect. Here, Raju et al. show that this variation follows a power-law behaviour driven by chiral spin fluctuations at the phase transition between isolated and lattice skyrmions.
