Effects of Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya Interaction on magnetism in Nanodisks

We give a theoretical study on the magnetic properties of monolayer nanodisks with both Heisenberg exchange and Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya (DM) interactions. In particular, we survey the magnetic effects caused by anisotropy, external magnetic field, and disk size when DM interaction is present by means of a new quantum simulation method based on mean-field theory. This computational approach finds that uniaxial anisotropy and transverse magnetic field enhances the net magnetization as well as increases the transition temperature of the vortex phase while preserving the chiralities of the nanodisks. Whereas, when the strength of DM interaction is sufficiently strong for a given disk size, magnetic domains appear within the circularly bounded region, which vanish and gives in to a single vortex when a transverse magnetic field is applied. The latter confirms the magnetic skyrmions induced by the magnetic field as observed in the experiments.
