abstract = {Topological magnetic textures, known as magnetic skyrmions,
hold significant promise for applicationsas nanoscale
information components in logic and memory devices. These
quasiparticles,characterized by their swirling spin
configurations, exhibit unique advantages due to their
stability,diminutive size, and the low current densities
required for manipulation [1]. In transition metal
oxides,electronic correlations between 4d and 5d oxides in
bilayer forms induce strong spin-orbit coupling(SOC),
facilitating the formation of magnetic skyrmions on the
surface of SrRuO3 (SRO). Stacksof SrRuO3/SrIrO3 (SIO)
epitaxial layers integrate essential elements such as the
Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), large perpendicular
magnetic anisotropy (PMA), and spin-orbit torques(SOT) to
stabilize magnetic skyrmions and enable their efficient
current-driven motion. Bilayers ofSRO/SIO are grown on TiO2
terminated SrTiO3 (STO) (001) substrates, where the growth
of SRO isachieved via High Oxygen Pressure Sputtering (HOPS)
and SIO via Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE).Precise control of
film thickness is crucial to maintain the intrinsic
properties of both materials andobserve magnetic skyrmions.
Therefore, we systematically vary the thickness of both the
layers tooptimize their magnetic properties,
magnetoresistance and the Hall effect that includes ordinary
Halleffect (OHE), anomalous Hall effect (AHE), and
Topological Hall effect (THE). Given the
challengesassociated with directly observing skyrmions
directly at the nano-meter scale in the real space, weemploy
the topological Hall effect as an indirect method to
characterize magnetic skyrmions in ferromagneticthin
films[2]. For detailed interfacial and surface studies of
the thin films, PolarizedNeutron Reflectometry (PNR) and
Grazing Incidence Small Angle Neutron Scattering (GISANS)
willbe performed. The expected results will test the
hypothesis of the presence of ordered magneticskyrmions and
their contribution to the topological Hall effect in the
bilayer oxide thin film, potentiallyadvancing our
understanding of skyrmion dynamics and their application in
spintronicsdevices.[1] N. Nagaosa et. al. Nat. Nanotechnol.
