How optical skyrmions can be used to control magnetic skyrmions (IMAGE)
Caption
The phase and polarization structure of an optical skyrmion can be translated into the motion of a magnetic skyrmion, offering a potential route toward contact-free and programmable control of magnetic nanostructures in emerging technologies for processing and storage of information such as hybrid photonic spintronic or optomagnonic devices
