| contents | Noncoplanar magnetic states with a scalar spin chirality have been intensively studied in condensed matter physics, since they exhibit fascinating physical phenomena. We theoretically propose the generation of such noncoplanar magnetic states by using a circularly polarized electric field. By performing the micromagnetic simulation, we investigate a time evolution of a classical kagome magnet irradiated by the circularly polarized electric field. As a result, we find that the noncoplanar magnetic states are induced as a nonequilibrium steady state irrespective of the ground-state spin configurations. We show that the induced scalar spin chirality is controlled by the amplitude, frequency, and polarization of the electric field. In addition, we clarify that the mechanism of the noncoplanar magnetic states is accounted for by effective field-induced three-spin interactions by adopting the Floquet formalism in the high-frequency regime. We also show a condition to enhance the scalar spin chirality. Our results present a new reference for controlling the noncoplanar magnetic states and related phenomena by the circularly polarized electric field. |
