Abstract

The AC susceptibilities of Fe1-xCoxSi (0.1 ≤ × ≤ 0.7) alloys were measured and compared with that of MnSi. The range of skyrmion phase in the H-T phase space was enlarged and moved to higher temperatures when approximately 1/3 of the Fe was substituted with Co. Comparing with MnSi, the skyrmion phase of Fe0.7Co0.3Si was found thermodynamically more stable under a much lower and narrower critical field near 280 ± 50 Oe. The stability range in the H-T phase space and the free energy reduction δE (as a function of the applied magnetic field) for both the Fe0.7Co0.3Si and MnSi were compared.
