Helical and skyrmion lattice phases in three-dimensional chiral magnets: Effect of anisotropic interactions

Abstract In this work, we study the magnetic orders of a classical spin model with anisotropic exchanges and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions in order to understand the uniaxial stress effect in chiral magnets such as MnSi. Variational zero temperature calculations demonstrate that various helical...
