Chiral multi-site interactions in prototypical magnetic systems — •Sascha Brinker1, Manuel dos Santos Dias1, and Samir Lounis1,21Peter Grünberg Institut and Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum Jülich and JARA, 52425 Jülich, Germany — 2Faculty of Physics, University of Duisburg-Essen and CENIDE, 47053 Duisburg, Germany

Atomistic spin models can successfully explain the properties of magnetic materials once the relevant magnetic interactions are identified. Recently, new types of chiral interactions that generalize the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction have been proposed [1,2,3,4]. Here, we present a systematic construction of a generalized spin model containing isotropic and chiral multi-site interactions, motivated by a microscopic model, and their symmetry properties are established. We show that the chiral interactions arise solely from the spin-orbit interaction and that the multi-site interactions do not have to follow Moriya’s rules, unlike the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction [1,4]. We then report on density functional theory calculations for prototypical magnetic systems, finite magnetic nanostructures on heavy metal substrates and two-dimensional systems with inversion symmetry.
