Fermi-Surface Origin of Skyrmion Lattices in Centrosymmetric Rare-Earth Intermetallics

We show from first principles that barrel-shaped structures within the Fermi surface of the centrosymmetric intermetallic compounds GdRu2Si2 and Gd2PdSi3 give rise to Fermi surface nesting, which determines the strength and sign of quasi-two-dimensional Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida pairwise exchang...
