Motion of a skyrmionium driven by spin wave

A skyrmionium is composed of two skyrmions with opposite skyrmion numbers and different sizes in the same track. In recent years, the motion of a skyrmionium driven by spin-polarized current has been investigated. However, the motion of a skyrmionium driven by a spin wave has not been reported. In this paper, we report our work concerning the numerical analysis of spin wave-driven motion of a skyrmionium in a nanotrack. The results show that the motion of a skyrmionium was significantly influenced by varying the frequency and amplitude of the AC magnetic field for exciting a spin wave, the distance between the spin wave source and the skyrmionium, the damping coefficient of the ferromagnetic track, and the track width. We found skyrmionium deformation during its initial motion process, but its shape could be recovered as it moved farther away from the spin wave source. Additionally, a series of velocity peaks were observed in the frequency range between 25 GHz and 175 GHz. When compared to a skyrmion, the skyrmionium could be driven by a spin wave to move in a wider frequency range at a higher velocity, and the velocity of the skyrmionium kept increasing with the increase in the track width till the track edge was far away from the skyrmionium. The result offers skyrmionium potential applications in wide-frequency spintronic devices.
