Cubic chiral magnets exhibit a universal magnetic phase diagram due to a hierarchy of energy scales comprising exchange interactions, Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya spin-orbit coupling and magnetocrystalline anisotropies (MCAs). In MnSi thermal Gaussian fluctuations stabilize a skyrmion lattice phase near Tc for all magnetic field orientations reflecting very weak MCAs [1,2]. In Cu2OSeO3, an additional skyrmion lattice phase stabilizes in the low temperature limit due to strong MCAs for magnetic field parallel ⟨100⟩ [3]. We report a study of the interplay of moderate MCAs and disorder in Fe1−xCoxSi. Combining magnetometry and small-angle neutron scattering we observe a wide parameter range in which the effects of thermal fluctuations, MCAs and disorder stabilize skyrmion lattice order over an exceptionally wide parameter range depending on field orientation.
