Magnetic anti-skyrmions are topologically protected nanoscopic chiral spin textures. They are composed of alternating boundary of Bloch and Néel domain walls. Recently anti-skyrmions have been discovered in a ferromagnetic tetragonal inverse Heusler compound Mn1.4Pt0.9Pd0.1Sn [1]. Here we report the observation of anti-skyrmions in a ferrimagnetic Heusler compound Mn2Rh0.95Ir0.05Sn using Lorentz transmission electron microscopy. This compound has a lower magnetic moment which orders at 270 K. Our results may pave the way to search for antiskyrmions in a ferrimagnetic material with a very low magnetic moment for future spintronic applications. [1]Nayak et al., Nature 548, 561 (2017).
