A particular advantage of the new technique is that it also works with chiral antiferromagnetic materials.

However, thanks to the use of an antiferromagnetic material4 as medium, the scientists successfully had the skyrmions move 10 times faster than previously observed.

Since then, the family of magnetic materials has been divided into two fundamental phases: the ferromagnetic branch known for several millennia and the antiferromagnetic branch.

For the current study, the researchers used the technique to look at hematite, an antiferromagnetic iron oxide material.

Nevertheless, antiferromagnetic insulators are considered promising for energy-efficient components in the field of information technology.
