Preservation of scalar spin chirality across a metallic spacer in synthetic antiferromagnets with chiral interlayer interactions: Support Data

About the dataset

This dataset supports a study investigating chiral spin textures in synthetic antiferromagnets (SAFs) mediated by interlayer Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (IL-DMI). Using a combination of X-ray resonant magnetic scattering (XRMS) and photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM), the work reveals how IL-DMI induces vector and scalar spin chirality across ferromagnetic layers with orthogonal magnetic anisotropies.

The dataset includes:

• Processed XRMS and PEEM data used to derive the key magnetic textures reported.

• Scripts, in jupyter notebook format, for reproducing all figures from the associated publication.

These resources are intended to support the continued exploration of IL-DMI-mediated interactions. For full details on dataset structure and usage, see the accompanying README.txt.
