Skyrmion devices for memory and logic applications

Skyrmion devices for memory and logic applications

Skyrmions have received considerable attention in various studies since the experimental observation in magnetic materials in 2009. Skyrmions, which are topological, particle-like localized structures, show significant fundamental research value in the field of physics and materials and are also reg...

description Skyrmions have received considerable attention in various studies since the experimental observation in magnetic materials in 2009. Skyrmions, which are topological, particle-like localized structures, show significant fundamental research value in the field of physics and materials and are also regarded as novel information carriers that have the potential for use in developing high-density, low-power, and multi-functional spintronic devices. In this Perspective, we first overview the development, structure, and materials of skyrmions.
