Several challenges in designing an operational Skyrmion racetrack memory are well-known. Among those challenges, a few contradictions can be identified if researchers were to rely only on metallic materials. Hence, expanding the exploration on Skyrmion Physics into oxide materials is essential to bridge the contradicting gap. In this topical review, we first briefly revise the theories and criteria involved in stabilizing and manipulating Skymions, followed by studying the behaviors of dipolar-stabilized magnetic bubbles. Next, we explore the properties of multiferroic Skyrmions with magnetoelectric coupling, which can only be stabilized in Cu$_2$OSeO$_3$ thus far, as well as the rare bulk Neel-type Skyrmions in some polar materials. As an interlude section, we review the theory of Anomalous (AHE) and Topological Hall Effect (THE), before going through the recent progress of THE in oxide thin films. The debate about an alternative interpretation is also discussed. Finally, this review ends with future outlooks about the promising strategies of using interfacial charge-transfer and (111)-orientation of perovskites to benefit the field of Skyrmion research.

In recent years, noncollinear topological textures have long gained increasing research attentions for their high values of both fundamental researches and potential applications. The recent discovery of intrinsic orders in magnetic and polar two-dim
ensional van der Waals materials provides a new ideal platform for the investigation of noncollinear topological textures. Here, we review the theoretical and experimental progresses on noncollinear topological textures in two-dimensional van der Waals materials in very recent years. During these years, magnetic skyrmions of both Bloch and Neel types have been observed experimentally in a few two-dimensional van der Waals materials and related heterostructures. Concurrently, more theoretic predictions basing on various mechanisms have been reported about different noncollinear topological textures in two-dimensional van der Waals materials, such as skyrmions, bimerons, anti-biskyrmions and skyrmionium, which are still waiting to be confirmed in experiments. Besides, noncollinear topological electric dipole orders have also been predicted in two-dimensional van der Waals materials. Taking advantage of the intrinsic two-dimensional nature and high integratability, the two-dimensional van der Waals materials will play an important role in the investigation on noncollinear topological textures in both magnetic and polar systems.
Topological spin configurations in proximity to a superconductor have recently attracted great interest due to the potential application of the former in spintronics and also as another platform for realizing non-trivial topological superconductors.
Their application in these areas requires precise knowledge of the existing exchange fields and/or the stray-fields which are therefore essential for the study of these systems. Here, we determine the effective stray-field and the Meissner currents in a Superconductor/Ferromagnet/Superconductor (S/F/S) junction produced by various nonhomogenous magnetic textures in the F. The inhomogeneity arises either due to a periodic structure with flat domain walls (DW) or is caused by an isolated chiral magnetic skyrmion (Sk). We consider both Bloch- and N{e}el-type Sk and also analyze in detail the periodic structures of different types of DWs-- that is Bloch-type DW (BDW) and N{e}el-type DW (NDW) of finite width with in- and out-of-plane magnetization vector. The spatial dependence of the fields and Meissner currents are shown to be qualitatively different for the case of Bloch- and N{e}el-type magnetic textures. While the spatial distributions in the upper and lower S are identical for Bloch-type Sk and DWs they are asymmetric for the case of N{e}el-type magnetic textures. The depairing factor, which determines the critical temperature and which is related to vector potential of the stray-field, can have its maximum at the center of a magnetic domain but also, as we show, above the DW. For Sks the maximum is located at a finite distance within the Sk radius. Based on this, we study the nucleation of superconductivity in the presence of DWs. Because of the asymmetry for N{e}el-type structures, the critical temperature in the upper and lower S is expected to be different. The obtained results can also be applied to S/F bilayers.
We present an in-depth classification of the topological phases and Majorana fermion (MF) excitations that arise from the bulk interplay between unconventional multiband spin-singlet superconductivity and various magnetic textures. We focus on magnet
ic texture crystals with a periodically-repeating primitive cell of the helix, whirl, and skyrmion types. Our analysis is relevant for a wide range of layered materials and hybrid devices, and accounts for both strong and weak, as well as crystalline topological phases. We identify a multitude of accessible topological phases which harbor flat, uni- or bi-directional, (quasi-)helical, or chiral MF edge modes. This rich variety of MFs originates from the interplay between topological phases with gapped and nodal bulk energy spectra, with the resulting types of spectra and MFs controlled by the size of the pairing and magnetic gaps.
Fabricating complex transition metal oxides with a tuneable band gap without compromising their intriguing physical properties is a longstanding challenge. Here we examine the layered ferroelectric bismuth titanate and demonstrate that, by site-speci
fic substitution with the Mott insulator lanthanum cobaltite, its band gap can be narrowed as much as one electron volt, while remaining strongly ferroelectric. We find that when a specific site in the host material is preferentially substituted, a split-off state responsible for the band gap reduction is created just below the conduction band of bismuth titanate. This provides a route for controlling the band gap in complex oxides for use in emerging oxide opto-electronic and energy applications.
Large-gap quantum spin Hall insulators are promising materials for room-temperature applications based on Dirac fermions. Key to engineer the topologically non-trivial band ordering and sizable band gaps is strong spin-orbit interaction. Following Ka
ne and Meles original suggestion, one approach is to synthesize monolayers of heavy atoms with honeycomb coordination accommodated on templates with hexagonal symmetry. Yet, in the majority of cases, this recipe leads to triangular lattices, typically hosting metals or trivial insulators. Here, we conceive and realize indenene, a triangular monolayer of indium on SiC exhibiting non-trivial valley physics driven by local spin-orbit coupling, which prevails over inversion-symmetry breaking terms. By means of tunneling microscopy of the 2D bulk we identify the quantum spin Hall phase of this triangular lattice and unveil how a hidden honeycomb connectivity emerges from interference patterns in Bloch $p_x pm ip_y$-derived wave functions.
