Abstract
We investigate electrical transport properties of micrometer-sized samples of the rare-earth-based monoaxial chiral magnetic crystal in order to characterize chiral magnetic structures. The magnetoresistance (MR) data exhibit discrete changes, supporting the formation of the chiral spin soliton lattice (CSL) in . Reversal and lock-in behavior of the MR signal are significant features during the CSL formation, which contrast with hysteresis behavior reported in a prototype monoaxial chiral magnetic crystal of . The magnetic phase diagrams are provided based on the electrical transport properties in micrometer-sized crystals.
