Zero-temperature phases for chiral magnets in three dimensions

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2015-05-20 v1

Abstract

We calculate the energies of various multiple-spiral spin configurations for the three-dimensional model of chiral magnets. The ground-state phase diagram is obtained in the space of anisotropy, magnetic field, and interaction parameters. Regimes with multiple-spiral, or spin crystal ground states of two- and three-dimensional nature are identified. The Skyrmion number responsible for anomalous Hall effect is examined for each spin crystal configuration. A geometric interpretation is given for the three-dimensional spin crystal lattice structures as the periodic arrangement of hedgehog and anti-hedgehog singularities.
