Abstract
A device includes a magnetic layer and a guiding structure arranged over the magnetic layer and configured to sequentially transfer a skyrmion in the magnetic layer along a transfer pattern in response to a rotating magnetic field. The device further includes a plurality of magnetoresistive elements arranged along the transfer pattern and configured to detect a position of the skyrmion in the transfer pattern. The device is configured to determine a number of rotations of the rotating magnetic field based on the detected position of the skyrmion in the transfer pattern.
