Skyrmion Hall Effect in Altermagnets.

It is widely believed that the skyrmion Hall effect is absent in antiferromagnets because of the vanishing topological charge. However, the Aharonov-Casher theory indicates the possibility of topological effects for neutral particles. In this Letter, we predict the skyrmion Hall effect in emerging altermagnets with zero net magnetization and zero skyrmion charge.

Nonlinear Topological Magnon Spin Hall Effect.

When a magnon passes through two-dimensional magnetic textures, it will experience a fictitious magnetic field originating from the 3×3 skew-symmetric gauge fields. To date, only one of the three independent components of the gauge fields has been found to play a role in generating the fictitious magnetic field, while the other two are perfectly hidden. In this Letter, we show that they are concealed in the nonlinear magnon transport in magnetic textures.

Low-Power and Field-Free Perpendicular Magnetic Memory Driven by Topological Insulators.

Giant spin-orbit torque (SOT) from topological insulators (TIs) has great potential for low-power SOT-driven magnetic random-access memory (SOT-MRAM). In this work, a functional 3-terminal SOT-MRAM device is demonstrated by integrating the TI [(BiSb) Te ] with perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions (pMTJs), where the tunneling magnetoresistance is employed for the effective reading method. An ultralow switching current density of 1.

The skyrmion bags in an anisotropy gradient.

Skyrmion bags as spin textures with arbitrary topological charge are expected to be the carriers in racetrack memory. Here, we theoretically and numerically investigated the dynamics of skyrmion bags in an anisotropy gradient. It is found that, without the boundary potential, the dynamics of skyrmion bags are dependent on the spin textures, and the velocity of skyrmionium with = 0 is faster than other skyrmion bags.
