Title: Write it as you like it

Abstract

Here we present that the microstate of geometrically frustrated two-dimensional arrays of strongly interacting nanomagnets is controlled by means of topological defect-driven magnetic writing, to the extent that elusive configurations such as the ground state and negative-temperature states are realized.

Classical topological order in the kinetics of artificial spin ice

Journal Article Lao, Yuyang ; Caravelli, Francesco ; Sheikh, Mohammed ; ... - Nature Physics

Systems of interacting nanomagnets known as “artificial spin ice” have allowed the design, realization and study of geometrically frustrated exotic collective states that are absent in natural magnets. We have experimentally measured , the thermally induced moment fluctuations in the Shakti geometry of artificial spin ice. We show that its disordered moment configuration is a topological phase described by an emergent dimer-cover model with excitations that can be characterized as topologically charged defects. Examination of the low-energy dynamics of the system confirms that these effective topological charges have long lifetimes associated with their topological protection, i.e., they can be createdmore »« less

Frustration and thermalization in an artificial magnetic quasicrystal

Journal Article Shi, Dong ; Budrikis, Zoe ; Stein, Aaron ; ... - Nature Physics

Here, artificial frustrated systems offer a playground to study the emergent properties of interacting systems. Most work to date has been on spatially periodic systems, known as artificial spin ices when the interacting elements are magnetic. Here we have studied artificial magnetic quasicrystals based on quasiperiodic Penrose tiling patterns of interacting nanomagnets. We construct a low-energy configuration from a step-by-step approach that we propose as a ground state. Topologically induced emergent frustration means that this configuration cannot be constructed from vertices in their ground states. It has two parts, a quasi-one-dimensional ‘skeleton’ that spans the entire pattern and is capablemore »« less

Crystallizing Kagome Artificial Spin Ice

Journal Article Yue, Wen-Cheng ; Yuan, Zixiong ; Lyu, Yang-Yang ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Artificial spin ices are engineered arrays of dipolarly coupled nanobar magnets. They enable direct investigations of fascinating collective phenomena from their diverse microstates. However, experimental access to ground states in the geometrically frustrated systems has proven difficult, limiting studies and applications of novel properties and functionalities from the low energy states. In this work, we introduce a convenient approach to control the competing diploar interactions between the neighboring nanomagnets, allowing us to tailor the vertex degeneracy of the ground states. We achieve this by tuning the length of selected nanobar magnets in the spin ice lattice. We demonstrate the effectivenessmore »« less

Thermally superactive artificial kagome spin ice structures obtained with the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

Journal Article Hofhuis, Kevin ; Hrabec, Aleš ; Arava, Hanu ; ... - Physical Review B

Artificial kagome spin ice exhibits exotic magnetic correlations driven by a combination of geometric frustration and dipolar interactions that, at low-enough temperature, can result in ordered phases. This order, whether it is the ground state of several kagome rings, or the theoretically predicted long-range order of an extended array, has yet to be experimentally observed. By introducing an interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, we are able to reduce the blocking temperature of the individual nanomagnets, allowing a system of 30 kagome nanomagnets to explore its vast manifold of microstates and find its ground state. Furthermore, the extracted magnetic correlations in an extendedmore »« less

Emergent reduced dimensionality by vertex frustration in artificial spin ice

Journal Article Gilbert, Ian ; Lao, Yuyang ; Carrasquillo, Isaac ; ... - Nature Physics

Reducing the dimensionality of a physical system can have a profound effect on its properties, as in the ordering of low-dimensional magnetic materials, phonon dispersion in mercury chain salts, sliding phases, and the electronic states of graphene. Here we explore the emergence of quasi-one-dimensional behaviour in two-dimensional artificial spin ice, a class of lithographically fabricated nanomagnet arrays used to study geometrical frustration. We extend the implementation of artificial spin ice by fabricating a new array geometry, the so-called tetris lattice. We demonstrate that the ground state of the tetris lattice consists of alternating ordered and disordered bands of nanomagnetic moments.more »« less
