We utilize femtosecond optical pulses to alter the helicity of the magnetic spin configuration in dipolar skyrmions formed in the kagome magnet Fe3Sn2 in the absence of an external magnetic field and at room temperature. In situ Lorentz transmission electron microscopy is used to visualise the light-induced stochastic switching process of chiral Néel caps, while the internal Bloch component of the dipolar skyrmions remains unchanged. To corroborate the spin states and the light-induced magnetisation dynamics, micromagnetic modelling and simulations of the resulting electron phase shift maps are conducted to elucidate the spin rearrangement induced by individual femtosecond optical pulses [1].
