Chiral magnets, e.g. magnetic skyrmions have attracted heavy interest due to their potential application for nano-scale magnetic storage. Their stabilization depends on the interplay between mainly the magnetic exchange and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction. The latter one strongly depends on the geometric structure. A vast majority of atomic-scale studies have utilized spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy (SP-STM). However, with SP-STM it is difficult to distinguish between structural corrugation and electronic and magnetic properties. We use a recently developed combination of SP-STM and magnetic exchange force microscopy (SPEX) to study the spin spirals in the reconstruction line network in a bilayer Fe on Ir(111). We show that with SPEX and DFT calculations we can obtain a detailed understanding of both the structure and the electronic and magnetic properties. Our work is important to understand the origin of magnetic order in atomic-scale magnetic non-collinear systems.
