Theoretical Prediction of Antiferromagnetic Skyrmion Crystal in Janus Monolayer CrSi2N2As2

Abstract: An antiferromagnetic skyrmion crystal (AF-SkX), a regular array of antiferromagnetic skyrmions, is a fundamental phenomenon in the field of condensed-matter physics. So far, very few proposals have been made to realize the AF-SkX, and most have been based on three-dimensional (3D) materials. Herein, using first-principles calculations and Monte Carlo simulations, we report the identification of AF-SkX in a twodimensional lattice of the Janus monolayer CrSi 2 N 2 As 2 . Arising from the broken inversion symmetr… Show more

“…A ‘magnetic polar metal’ which integrates magnetism, electric polarization, and metallicity may have potential applications in the field of information storage, 1 multiferroics, 2,3 spintronics, 4 magnetic skyrmions, 5–7 spin Hall effects, 8 etc. Unfortunately, few such systems are known as electric polarization usually counteracts ferromagnetism and conductivity.…”

“…[14][15][16][17] Recently, with the discovery of ferromagnetism in Cr 2 Ge 2 Te 6 , [18] CrI 3 [19] and VSe 2 , [20] 2D magnetic crystals are at the frontier of material research, and intensive efforts are devoted to exploit magnetic skyrmions in 2D lattices.

“…Topological objects with skyrmionic textures have attracted considerable attention due to their exotic phenomenon and enablement of potential applications, such as racetrack memories. Investigation of skyrmions has been widely conducted in magnetic systems because the formation of skyrmions mainly relies on the existence of intrinsic chiral interactions among spins, i.e., Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interactions. In contrast to the case of magnetic systems, polar skyrmions had long been out of reach in the exploitation of topological objects in ferroelectrics due to the absence of such chiral interactions. Recently, a plethora of nontrivial polar topological structures, including flux-closure domain, vortex, and skyrmions, have been gradually explored in different ferroelectric systems with confined geometries, such as nanocomposites and superlattices.…”
