Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
A skyrmionic programmable logic device (SPLD) with complete Boolean logic functions is proposed and analyzed by micromagnetic simulations. The SPLD is based on an antiferromagnet-ferromagnet bilayer structure, in which the antiferromagnetic layer supports the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and the out-of-plane exchange-bias field for stabilizing a zero-field skyrmion. By varying the local exchange-bias field, artificial pinning sites are introduced to trap skyrmions. Depending on the input currents and initial position of skyrmions at different pinning sites, different logic functions can be realized. Micromagnetic simulations show that the proposed SPLD has a robust performance, even under thermal fluctuations and inhomogeneity effects. Our work can provide insights for the design of programmable spin-logic devices.
