| contents | Topological magnetic skyrmions in centrosymmetric systems exhibit a higher degrees of freedom in their helicity, hence possess a great potential in the advanced spintronics including skyrmion based quantum computation. However, the centrosymmetric magnets also display non-topological trivial bubbles along with the topological skyrmions. Hence it is utmost priority to investigate the impact of different magnetic ground states and their underlying interactions on the stabilization of magnetic skyrmions in cetrosymmetric magnets. Here, we present a combined theoretical and experimental study on the role of non-collinear magnetic ground state on the skyrmion stabilization in a series of exchange frustrated non-collinear ferromagnetic system MnFe1-xCoxGe. With the help of neutron diffraction (ND) and Lorentz transmission electron microscopy (LTEM) studies, we show that hexagonal skyrmions lattice emerges as a stable field driven state only when the underlying magnetic ground state is collinear with easy-axis anisotropy. In contrast, non-topological type-II bubbles are found to be stable state in the case of non-collinear magnetic ordering with partial in-plane anisotropy. Furthermore, we also find that the skyrmions transform to the non-topological bubbles when the system undergoes a spin reorientation transition from the easy-axis to easy-cone ferromagnetic phase. Our results categorically establish the significant role of in-plane magnetic moment/anisotropy that hinders the stability of skyrmion both in the case of collinear and non-collinear magnets. Thus, the present study offers a wide range of opportunities to manipulate the stability of dipolar skyrmions by changing the intrinsic characteristics of the materials. |
