• Abstract: Skyrmions are competitive candidates for information-storage units and have great prospect in quantum information processing. We here study coherent control of a quantum skyrmion via surface acoustic wave (SAW) phonons in a piezoelectric SAW cavity. Exact diagonalization of a finite Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya cluster reveals the eigenstates of quantum skyrmion with robust scalar chirality. The underlying lattice-spin symmetry imposes polarization-dependent selection rules for the electromagnetic transitions between eigenstates states. Considering the small mode volume of the SAW phonon easy to reach strong coupling, we derive the interaction Hamiltonian between the quantum skyrmion as a qubit and a single-mode quantized SAW via the electric field induced by piezoelectric effect, and find that the coupling strength at the single-phonon level increases linearly with skyrmion radius. This enables enhanced spin-acoustic coupling for larger skyrmionic textures and for low magnetic dissipation. Our results establish few-spin quantum skyrmions as compact building blocks for hybrid quantum information processing and suggest a route toward more densely integrated on-chip quantum devices.
