The smallest magnetic vortex structures called skyrmions (named after the British theoretical physicist Tony Skyrme, who predicted this structure in the 1960s) promise to become the foundation of future magnetic memory. These are topologically stable magnetic formations that can be excited in magnetic films and then read in their state. Both writing and reading occur using spin currents […]
