Magnetic skyrmions, as topologically protected whirl-like solitons, have been the subject of growing interest in non-volatile spintronic memories and logic devices. Recently, much effort has been devoted to searching for skyrmion host materials in two-dimensional (2D) systems, where intrinsic invers...
