Dipolar-stabilized first and second-order antiskyrmions in ferrimagnetic multilayers
Abstract
Antiskyrmions are topological spin textures with negative vorticity. Like skyrmions, they have considerable technological promise, but have only been stabilised in Heusler compounds. Here, Heigl et al. succeed in stabilising first and second order antiskyrmions in a new class of materials.
