      abstract     = {The emergence of topological magnetism in two-dimensional
                      (2D) van der Waals (vdW) magnetic materials and their
                      heterostructures is an essential ingredient for
                      next-generation information technology devices. Here, we
                      demonstrate the all-electric switching of the topological
                      nature of individual magnetic objects emerging in 2D vdW
                      heterobilayers. We show from the first principles that an
                      external electric field modifies the vdW gap between CrTe2
                      and (Rh, Ti)Te2 layers and alters the underlying magnetic
                      interactions. This enables switching between ferromagnetic
                      skyrmions and meron pairs in the CrTe2/RhTe2 heterobilayer
                      while it enhances the stability of frustrated
                      antiferromagnetic merons in the CrTe2/TiTe2 heterobilayer.
                      We envision that the electrical engineering of distinct
                      topological magnetic solitons in a single device could pave
                      the way for novel energy-efficient mechanisms to store and
                      transmit information with applications in spintronics.},
