摘要
Motivated by recent experimental polarized neutron results, we present a numerical micromagnetic study of the interfacial (intergrain) Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) in nanocrystalline terbium. We demonstrate that the DMI-induced spin misalignment between adjacent nanograins is the reason for the formation of the asymmetric positive-negative pattern seen in polarized neutron scattering experiments. Analysis of the remagnetization process suggests the generic impact of the DMI on the macroscopic magnetic parameters of polycrystalline defect-rich materials.
