Toward low-energy-consumption spintronic devices, magnetic multilayers that host chiral spin textures, as well as efficient spin-torques, are highly promising. As compared with resistive materials, superconducting materials are optimal for constructing dissipationless electronic devices, in which the electricity is conducted without producing Joule heating. In this regard, magnetic multilayers containing superconductors are well suited for building ultra-low power spintronic devices. Following this motivation, we study the possible existence of chiral spin textures in the two-dimensional (2D) high temperature superconductor/ferrimagnet heterostructures of stacking order Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+ δ/Fe 1− x Tb x and stacking order Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+ δ/Co 1− x Tb x. Through x-ray photon-emission electron microscopy, we observe bubble-like spin textures in a wide temperature range. Based on the first-principles …
