Driving chiral domain walls in antiferromagnets using rotating magnetic fields

We show theoretically and numerically that an antiferromagnetic domain wall can be moved by a rotating magnetic field in the presence of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Two motion modes are found: rigid domain wall motion at low frequency (corresponding to the perfect frequency synchronization) and the oscillating motion at high frequency. In the full synchronized region, the steady velocity of the domain wall is universal, in the sense that it depends only on the frequency of the rotating field and the ratio between DMI strength and exchange constant. The domain wall velocity is independent of the Gilbert damping and the rotating field strength. Moreover, a rotating field in megahertz is sufficient to move the antiferromagnetic domain wall.
