Skyrmion dynamics and topological sorting on periodic obstacle arrays

Skyrmion dynamics and topological sorting on periodic obstacle arrays

We examine skyrmions under a dc drive interacting with a square array of obstacles for varied obstacle size and damping. When the drive is applied in a fixed direction, we find that the skyrmions are initially guided in the drive direction but also move transverse to the drive due to the Magnus forc...
