abstract = {Using spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy we show
that the magnetic order of 1 monolayer Mn on W(001) is a
spin spiral propagating along < 110 > crystallographic
directions. The spiral arises on the atomic scale with a
period of about 2.2 nm, equivalent to only 10 atomic rows.
Ab initio calculations identify the spin spiral as a
left-handed cycloid stabilized by the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya
interaction, imposed by spin-orbit coupling, in the presence
of softened ferromagnetic exchange coupling. Monte Carlo
simulations explain the formation of a nanoscale labyrinth
pattern, originating from the coexistence of the two
possible rotational domains, that is intrinsic to the
system.},
