Direct Observation of Cycloidal Spin Modulation and Field-induced Transition in Néel-type Skyrmion-hosting VOSe2O5
We investigate the spin rotational structure of magnetic skyrmions in a tetragonal polar magnet VOSe2O5 viapolarized small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Spin polarization analysis of the scattered neutrons provides consistentevidence for the cycloidal spin modulation in all the incommensurate pha...

We investigate the spin rotational structure of magnetic skyrmions in a tetragonal polar magnet VOSe2O5 viapolarized small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Spin polarization analysis of the scattered neutrons provides consistentevidence for the cycloidal spin modulation in all the incommensurate phases at zero and non-zero magnetic field alongthe c axis, including the triangular skyrmion-lattice phase. In the vicinity of the skyrmion phase, we performed extensiveSANS measurements to unravel a field-induced incommensurate phase (IC-2 state). We discuss the possibility ofanisotropic double-q state as an alternative spin structure to provisional square skyrmion-lattice state. |
