Current-induced creation and dynamics of embedded magnetic skyrmion bags

Magnetic skyrmion bags—vortex-like structures hosting multiple skyrmions with tunable topological charge ( Q )—hold significant promise for next-generation spintronic computing. However, while their creation using magnetic fields has been demonstrated, their direct electrical generation remains an outstanding challenge. Here, we report the direct current-induced formation and manipulation of embedded skyrmion bags in a FeGe nanoplate under zero magnetic field. Using in-situ Lorentz transmission electron microscopy, we capture the transformation of a distorted helical ground state into embedded skyrmion bags with diverse configurations, driven by nanosecond current pulses. Theoretical analysis indicates that this process is driven by the spin-transfer-torque-induced fracture of the helical state. Furthermore, we demonstrate electrically-induced transitions between skyrmion bags of different Q , leading to the stabilization of complex three-dimensional topological structures, including experimental signatures of magnetic monopoles and bobbers. Our work establishes a foundation for all-electrical control of high- Q topological spin textures and topological defects, paving the way for their application in functional spintronic devices.
