Emergent geometric frustration of artificial magnetic skyrmion crystals by Ma, Fusheng, Reichhardt, C., Gan, Weiliang, Reichhardt, C. J. Olson, Lew, Wen Siang

“…Here, we propose a skyrmion spin ice, giving a unifying framework for the study of geometric frustration of skyrmion crystals (SCs) in a nonfrustrated artificial geometrical lattice as a consequence of the structural confinement of skyrmions in magnetic potential wells. The emergent ice rules from the geometrically frustrated SCs highlight a novel phenomenon in this skyrmion system: emergent geometrical frustration. …”
