Microscopic observation of nonergodic states in two-dimensional nontopological bubble lattices
Research output: Contribution to journal › Research article › Contributed › peer-review
Abstract
Disordered two-dimensional (2D) lattices, including hexatic and various glassy states, are observed in a wide range of 2D systems including colloidal nanoparticle assemblies and fluxon lattices. Their disordered nature determines the stability and mobility of these systems, as well as their response to the external stimuli. Here we report on the controlled creation and characterization of a disordered 2D lattice of nontopological magnetic bubbles in the noncentrosymmetric ferrimagnetic alloy Mn1.4PtSn. By analyzing the type and frequency of fundamental lattice defects, such as dislocations, the orientational correlation, as well as the induced motion of the lattice in an external field, a nonergodic glassy state, stabilized by directional application of an external field, is revealed.
