Topological Spin Hall Effect in Antiferromagnetic Skyrmions — •Patrick M. Buhl, Frank Freimuth, Stefan Blügel, and Yuriy Mokrousov — Peter Grünberg Institut and Institute of Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum Jülich and JARA, 52425 Jülich, Germany

We report on our recent methodological developments designed to describe the transport properties of large-scale chiral magnetic structures on the basis of a Boltzmann-like semiclassical formalism. Density-functional theory is used to supply an accurate initial collinear description of our antiferromagnetic example systems such as Fe/Cu/Fe trilayer. On top, skyrmionic long-range chiral magnetic texture is artificially imposed on the level of degenerate, and thus non-abelian, equations of motion, in which the topological non-triviality manifests as the emergent magnetic field. Within this framework, we iteratively find the wave-packet semiclassical trajectories for the states at the Fermi surface in order to estimate the conductivity tensor. Thereby we gain an important insight into the macroscopic transport properties of two-dimensional chiral magnetic structures and can quantify their sizeable topological spin Hall effect.
