Finite Differences (FD) discretizations were used for the solution of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. Magnetic configurations exhibiting N\\'eel chiral stripe and N\\'eel skyrmionic formations were detected. The magnetic skyrmions can be created in different systems generated by the variation of external field, side length and width of the squared-based parallelepiped magnetic nanoparticles. Micromagnetic configurations revealed a variety of states which include skyrmionic textures with one distinct skyrmion formed and being stable for a range of external fields around room-temperature. The size of the formed N\\'eel skyrmion is calculated as a function of the external field, temperature, magnetocrystalline anisotropy and nanoparticle's geometrical characteristic lengths which can be adjusted to produce N\\'eel type skyrmions on demand having diameters down to 12 nm. The micromagnetic simulations revealed that stable skyrmions at the temperature range 270K-330K can be created for FePt magnetic nanoparticle systems lacking of chiral interactions such as Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya, providing new perspectives in the new magnetic writing era.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-01-12T10:35:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "magnetic skyrmions", "fept square-based nanoparticles", "room-temperature", "exhibiting neel chiral stripe", "magnetic nanoparticle systems lacking" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
