| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Magnetic skyrmion in magnets is an emergent topological particle made from
many spins swirling and pointing all the directions. The skyrmion has several unique features distinct from the other spin textures such as domain wall, helical structure, and vortex.The experimental studies reveal that skyrmion, the nano-sized magnetic texture, is driven by a much smaller electric current density than that for the magnetic domain wall motion, and hence the potential application of the skyrmion has attracted much attention. The key to develop the magnetic memory devices is nothing more than the control technique of the magnetic texture by external fields. We theoretically study the creation, annihilation and current-driven motion of skyrmion in the chiral and dipolar magnets in two dimensions, by numerically solving Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. By the numerical study, we explore the optimal condition to control the skyrmion in the ferromagnetic background.
