Antiferromagnetic spintronics is a promising emerging paradigm to develop high-performance computing and communications devices. From a theoretical point of view, it is important to implement simulation tools that can support a data-driven development of materials having specific properties for particular applications. Here, we present a study focusing on antiferromagnetic materials having an easy-plane anisotropy and interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (IDMI). An analytical theory is developed and benchmarked against full numerical micromagnetic simulations, describing the main properties of the ground state in antiferromagnets and how it is possible to estimate the IDMI from experimental measurements. The effect of the IDMI on the electrical switching dynamics of the antiferromagnetic element is also analyzed. Our theoretical results can be used for the design of multi-terminal heavy metal/antiferromagnet memory devices.
