Manipulating and trapping skyrmions by magnetic field gradients
The effective manipulation of skyrmion motion introduces the technologically relevant possibility of skyrmion-based spintronics. Here we show how a magnetic skyrmion can be captured by a radially spatial gradient of the magnetic field. A theoretical model governed by the Thiele equation is employed...
