520 | _ | _ | |a The properties of surface layers of a magnetic material can differ substantially from those of the bulk material. A prominent example is the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), resulting from inversion-symmetry breaking at the surface, but also the magnetic anisotropy and the exchange interactions are locally modified. Gd(0001) is here a well-investigated model surface but despite its sensitivity of exchange interactions, experimental data indicated that it behaves as homogeneous Heisenberg system [1]. Recent observations of spin-spirals at the surface of epitaxial Gd(0001) with spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy let us re-investigate this system. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that not only a sizable DMI can be found at the Gd(0001) surface but also the exchange interactions are modified to drive the system locally into a conical spin-spiral state. Since the magnetic anisotropy and the exchange interactions with the ferromagnetic bulk material disfavor non-collinear magnetic states, only slight modifications of the exchange interactions make these spirals visible. We explore the phase diagram numerically and with the help of atomistic spin-dynamics simulations.[1] C. S. Arnold and D. P. Pappas, Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 5202 (2000) |
