Dynamics of Polar Skyrmion Bubbles under Electric Fields.
Physical review letters(2022)
摘要
Room-temperature polar skyrmions, which have been recently discovered in oxide superlattice, have received considerable attention for their potential applications in nanoelectronics owing to their nanometer size, emergent chirality, and negative capacitance. For practical applications, their manipulation using external stimuli is a prerequisite. Herein, we study the dynamics of individual polar skyrmions at the nanoscale via in situ scanning transmission electron microscopy. By monitoring the electric-field-driven creation, annihilation, shrinkage, and expansion of topological structures in real space, we demonstrate the reversible transformation among skyrmion bubbles, elongated skyrmions, and monodomains. The underlying mechanism and interactions are discussed in conjunction with phase-field simulations. The electrical manipulation of nanoscale polar skyrmions allows the tuning of their dielectric permittivity at the atomic scale, and the detailed knowledge of their phase transition behaviors provides fundamentals for their applications in nanoelectronics.
