Observation of compact ferrimagnetic skyrmions in DyCo3 film — •Kai Chen1, Dieter Lott2, Andre Philippi-Kobs3, Markus Weigand1,4, Chen Luo1, and Florin Radu11Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie, Albert-Einstein-Str.15, 12489 Berlin, Germany — 2Institute for Materials Research, Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht, 21502 Geesthacht, Germany — 3Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), Notkestraße 85, 22607 Hamburg, Germany — 4Max-Planck-Institut für Intelligente Systeme, 70569 Stuttgart, Germany

Owing to the experimental discovery of magnetic skyrmions stabilized by the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in chiral magnets and/or dipolar interactions in thin films, there is a recent upsurge of interest in magnetic skyrmions with antiferromagnetic spin ordering which exhibit non-trivial topological spin configurations. Here, we report the observation of compact ferrimagnetic skyrmions in DyCo3 single layer, combining x-ray magnetic scattering, scanning transmission x-ray microscopy and Hall transport techniques. These skyrmions, with an antiparallel aligned Dy and Co magnetic moments and with a characteristic lateral sizes of about ∼40 nm are formed during the nucleation and the annihilation of the magnetic maze-like domains with an obvious topological Hall effect character. Our findings provide a promising route for fundamental research in the field of antiferromagnetic spintronics towards practical applications.
