We investigate the magnetic torque and magnetoresistance (MR) responses in oblique magnetic fields in micrometer-sized specimens of the hexagonal chiral magnetic crystal ${\mathrm{CrNb}}_3{\mathrm{S}}_6$. The results exhibit hysteresis over a wide range of applied field angles, while reversible behavior appears only when the magnetic field is closely aligned to the helical axis of the crystal. Stepwise changes of the magnetic torque and MR detected in the hysteresis region indicate the existence of chiral solitons in the oblique magnetic fields. A magnetic phase diagram is derived from the experimental results, and the stability of the chiral magnetic phases, such as the chiral soliton lattice and chiral conical phase, and the nature of the phase transition between them are discussed.

斜磁场中六方手性晶体CrNb3S6的磁孤子和磁相图

我们研究了微米级六角形手性磁性晶体样品在倾斜磁场中的磁转矩和磁阻（MR）响应 ${\mathrm{CrNb}}_3{\mathrm{小号}}_6$。结果显示在广泛的施加场角范围内有磁滞现象，而可逆行为仅在磁场与晶体的螺旋轴紧密对齐时才会出现。在磁滞区域中检测到的磁转矩和MR的逐步变化表明在倾斜磁场中存在手性孤子。从实验结果导出了磁相图，并讨论了手性磁相（如手性孤子晶格和手性圆锥相）的稳定性，以及它们之间的相变性质。
