Demonstration of Controlled Skyrmion Injection Across a Thickness Step (2024)
Journal Article
Littlehales, M. T., Moody, S. H., Turnbull, L. A., Huddart, B. M., Brereton, B. A., Balakrishnan, G., Fan, R., Steadman, P., Hatton, P. D., & Wilson, M. N. (2024). Demonstration of Controlled Skyrmion Injection Across a Thickness Step. Nano Letters, 24(22), 6813-6820. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.nanolett.4c01605

Spintronic devices incorporating magnetic skyrmions have attracted significant interest recently. Such devices traditionally focus on controlling magnetic textures in 2D thin films. However, enhanced performance of spintronic properties through the e... Read More about Demonstration of Controlled Skyrmion Injection Across a Thickness Step.

Energetic perspective on emergent inductance exhibited by magnetic textures in the pinned regime (2023)
Journal Article
Furuta, S., Moody, S. H., Kado, K., Koshibae, W., & Kagawa, F. (2023). Energetic perspective on emergent inductance exhibited by magnetic textures in the pinned regime. npj Spintronics, 1(1), Article 1. https://doi.org/10.1038/s44306-023-00004-1

Spatially varying magnetic textures can exhibit electric-current-induced dynamics as a result of the spin-transfer torque effect. When such a magnetic system is electrically driven, an electric field is generated, which is called the emergent electri...

Experimental evidence of a change of exchange anisotropy sign with temperature in Zn-substituted Cu2OSeO3 (2021)
Journal Article
Moody, S., Nielsen, P., Wilson, M., Venero, D. A., Štefančič, A., Balakrishnan, G., & Hatton, P. (2021). Experimental evidence of a change of exchange anisotropy sign with temperature in Zn-substituted Cu2OSeO3. Physical Review Research, 3(4), Article 043149. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevresearch.3.043149

We report small-angle neutron scattering from the conical state in a single crystal of Zn-substituted Cu 2 OSeO 3 . Using a 3D vector-field magnet to reorient the conical wave vector, our measurements show that the magnitude of the conical wave vecto...

Position-dependent stability and lifetime of the skyrmion state in nickel-substituted Cu2OSeO3 (2020)
Journal Article
Crisanti, M., Birch, M., Wilson, M., Moody, S., Štefančič, A., Huddart, B., …Cubitt, R. (2020). Position-dependent stability and lifetime of the skyrmion state in nickel-substituted Cu2OSeO3. Physical Review B, 102(22), Article 224407. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.102.224407

We report spatially resolved small-angle neutron-scattering measurements of the conical and skyrmion states of a bulk single crystal of nickel-substituted Cu2OSeO3, with a nominal concentration of Ni of 14%. We observe a significant spatial dependenc... Read More about Position-dependent stability and lifetime of the skyrmion state in nickel-substituted Cu2OSeO3.

Anisotropy-induced depinning in the Zn-substituted skyrmion host Cu2OSeO3 (2020)
Journal Article
Birch, M., Moody, S., Wilson, M., Crisanti, M., Bewley, O., Štefančič, A., …Hatton, P. (2020). Anisotropy-induced depinning in the Zn-substituted skyrmion host Cu2OSeO3. Physical review B, 102(10), Article 104424. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.102.104424

Magnetic skyrmions are nanosized topological spin textures stabilized by a delicate balance of magnetic energy terms. The chemical substitution of the underlying crystal structure of skyrmion-hosting materials offers a route to manipulate these energ...
