Observation of the skyrmion sideface state in a chiral magnet
We identify a three-dimensional skyrmion sideface state in chiral magnets that consists of a thin layer of modulated surface spirals and an array of phase-locked skyrmion screws. Such chiral spin structures lead to a characteristic ‘X’-shaped magnetic diffraction pattern in resonant elastic x-ray sc...
