Abstract
A study is performed of the formation and stability of skyrmion lattices during thermodynamic fluctuations in magnetoelectric films consisting of a frustrated antiferromagnetic/ferroelectric bilayer on a triangular lattice. The ground state configurations with these parameters are calculated according to the steepest descent. The effect thermodynamic fluctuations and an external magnetic field have on the ground state configurations is investigated via Monte Carlo modeling, and the phase transitions that occur in the model are considered.
