Skyrmion the ferromagnetic disk is obtained for several values of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya exchange constant Dint and a fixed
value of perpendicular anisotropy constant Kz. The spin wave modes of the skyrmionium were obtained using in-
plane and out-of-plane magnetic pulses. The results show that the values of the frequencies of the spin wave
modes depend on the values of Dint. Additionally, it is shown that it is possible to create a skyrmionium using in-
plane rotating magnetic fields, by tuning parameters such as the intensity of the applied perpendicular magnetic
fields, and their duration.

mode 1 rings, and their diameters also increase with the increase of Dint.
For the higher mode (third column of Fig. 4), the maximum oscillation
amplitudes are distributed in larger diameter rings for all values of Dint
used in this work, and their diameters also increase with the increase of
Dint.
In Fig. 5 are shown the spatial distribution profiles of the phase for
azimuthal modes. Lower (first column of Fig. 5) and intermediate (sec­
ond column of Fig. 5) mode oscillate with different phases according to
their positions on the disk. For the higher mode, from Dint = 3.4 mJ/m2
to Dint = 4.0 mJ/m2, the regions of high oscillation intensity oscillate in
phase, and for higher values of Dint, the phase of these oscillations de­
pends on their positions on the disk.
Next, it is shown that it is possible to create a skyrmionium in a
nanodisk that has as its minimum energy configuration a single domain
with perpendicular magnetization. In order to create a skyrmionium in

the nanodisk, it was used an in-plane rotating magnetic field3 B (t) = B0

y (+f for CCW and -f for CW), where B0 is the
magnetic field intensity, and f is the frequency of the azimuthal spin
wave modes previously obtained. In this stage, a realistic value of the
damping constant α = 0.3 [35] and Dint = 3.8 mJ/m2 [35] were used.
Using f = 3.29 GHz (clockwise intermediate mode), it was obtained a
skyrmionium applying a magnetic field intensity of B0 = 790 mT during
t = 872 ps. Once the magnetic field is turned off, the system is allowed to
relax until the skyrmionium is created. This process is shown in Fig. 6.
Similar results were obtained for different values of Dint or using other
frequencies of azimuthal spin wave modes. For example, using f = 19.79
GHz (counter-clockwise higher mode) and a magnetic field intensity of

same range of values as those used in a previous work [13], where it was
shown that a skyrmion or skyrmionium can be created using perpen­
dicular magnetic field pulses with a frequency equal to that of the radial
spin wave modes.

3. Conclusions

In this work, it was studied the influence of the Dzyaloshinskii-


Moriya interaction on the spatial distribution of the radial and
azimuthal spin waves in a Co/Pt nanodisk with a magnetic skyrmionium
configuration. Our results show that depending of the value of Dint, the
spatial distribution of the oscillation amplitudes of the azimuthal and
radial spin wave modes change. For both spin wave modes the maximum
oscillation amplitude tends to move towards the edges of the nanodisk
when Dint increases.
Our results also show that for radial spin wave modes the maximum
and smaller oscillations can oscillate in-phase or out-phase depending
on the mode. On the other hand, for the lower and intermediate
azimuthal modes, the phase of oscillation depends on the position of
these in the nanodisk, and for higher azimuthal mode the maximum
oscillation amplitudes can oscillate in-phase or out-phase depending on
the value of Dint.
It is also shown that using an in-plane rotating magnetic field with a Fig. 6. Images of the nanodisk exhibiting the spatial variation of the magne­
