Magnetic skyrmions can be generated, destroyed and driven to motion by electric spin currents in metals based on the spin transfer torque (STT) mechanism. However, the STT technique does not work in insulating materials because no electric currents can pass through. Fortunately, the magnetoelectric (ME) interaction that is present in multiferroic insulators makes it possible to manipulate magnetic skyrmions by applying electric fields. We have recently simulated ferroelectric (FE) skyrmionic crystals (or skyrmionic lattices so that skyrmionic c...
