abstract = {We use in situ Lorentz microscopy and off-axis electron
holography to investigate the formation and characteristics
of skyrmion lattice defects and their relationship to the
underlying crystallographic structure of a B20 FeGe thin
film. We obtain experimental measurements of spin
configurations at grain boundaries, which reveal inversions
of crystallographic and magnetic chirality across adjacent
grains, resulting in the formation of interface spin stripes
at the grain boundaries. In the absence of material defects,
we observe that skyrmions lattices possess dislocations and
domain boundaries, in analogy to atomic crystals. Moreover,
the distorted skyrmions can flexibly change their size and
shape to accommodate local geometry, especially at sites of
dislocations in the skyrmion lattice. Our findings provide a
detailed understanding of the elasticity of topologically
protected skyrmions and their correlation with underlying
material defects.},
