contents Interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (IF-DMI) leads to non-collinear spin configurations within the magnetic layers of multilayer heterostructures, while its interlayer counterpart (IL-DMI) minimizes chiral states between the layers. Here, we demonstrate that the symmetries of these interactions are very different, even though both arise from pairwise exchange interactions between magnetic sites mediated by nonmagnetic atoms. By deriving new boundary conditions for the exchange operator and solving the associated boundary value problem, we show that, unlike IF-DMI, which does not contribute to the FMR frequencies, IL-DMI alters the frequencies of the fundamental FMR modes and can be separated from other contributions in an FMR experiment.
