Defect-induced monopole injection and manipulation in artificial spin ice

Artificial spin ice systems offer a promising platform to study the motion of emergent magnetic monopoles, but controlled nucleation of monopoles is challenging. Here the authors demonstrate controlled injection and propagation of emergent monopoles in an artificial spin ice utilizing ferromagnetic...
