Project summary

Topologically non-trivial structures with particle-like properties in condensed matter systems, known as skyrmions, have recently been proposed for quantum computing. Though skyrmions have been observed in both ferromagnetic and ferroelectric materials with sizes in the nanometre range, identifying optimal materials to control these quantum objects remains difficult. This project will create multiferroic bismuth ferrite (BFO) superlattices in which there are alternating layers of BFO and another oxide to generate topological quantum structures as a result of strain at the interfaces. The project will further explore the control of these quantum structures through the application of electric fields as a pre-requisite for manipulating quantum information.
