| Research Abstract |
I studied topological textures such as domain walls and skyrmion (spin-swirling object) in magneto ferroelectrics, called multiferroics, where magnetic order and ferroelectricity coexists, to operate them at a fast rate. I focused on a multiferroic, Cu2OSeO3, which host the skyrmion and succeeded in detecting a high-speed magnetoelectric effect. I measured microwave transmittance in detail and observed a phenomenon in which microwave absorption depends on the incident direction of microwaves. This effect is known as a directional dichroism and a first experimental observation in a microwave regime.
