Antiferromagnetic materials were considered unfavorable for spintronic devices due to their zero net magnetic moment however recent research suggests that they may be much more useful than their ferromagnetic counterparts. The authors model an antiferromagnetic system, where the spin textures can be controlled and detected by breaking the inversion symmetry and by applying a magnetic field.
