Magnetostriction of helimagnets in the skyrmion crystal phase

We solve the magnetostriction strains for B20 helimagnets in the skyrmion crystal phase. By taking MnSi as an example, we reproduce its temperature–magnetic field ( T – B ) phase diagrams within a thermodynamic potential incorporating magnetoelastic interactions. The calculation shows that the norma...
