Abstract

We investigate the possible emergence of topological Hall effect (THE) in a driven magnetic DW. Numerical simulation based on the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert-Slonczewski (LLGS) equation shows that the emergent magnetic flux appears when the DW is in a non-equilibrium state. The magnitude of magnetic flux is modulated by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) or in-plane longitudinal magnetic field, providing an experimental test of the predicted THE. These results indicate that the THE can be observed even in a topologically trivial magnetic DW, and therefore open up new possibility to electrically detect the dynamical spin structure.
