The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction (DMI) is recently in the focus of spintronics, due to its fundamental role in the stabilization of chiral magnetic textures in thin films, such as magnetic skyrmions and chiral domain walls. Since for applications good spin structure stability is required across a certain temperature range, the temperature dependence of the DMI is of great interest.
In this work, we investigate the temperature dependence of the DMI, using high-resolution transmission x-ray microscopy to image the evolution of spin textures with temperature and magnetic field in Pt/CoFeB/MgO systems.
