[EN] Relying on both electromechanical and micromagnetic simulations, we propose a method to control the trajectory of current-driven skyrmions using an electric field in hybrid piezoelectric-magnetic systems. By applying a voltage between two lateral electrodes, a transverse strain gradient is created, as a result of the nonuniform electric field profile in the piezoelectric material. Due to magnetoelastic coupling, this transverse gradient leads to a lateral force on the skyrmions that can be used to suppress the skyrmion Hall angle for any given current density, if a proper voltage is applied. We show that this method works under realistic conditions, such as the presence of disorder in the ferromagnet, and that skyrmion trajectories can be controlled with moderate voltages. Moreover, our method allows the maximum current density that can be injected before the skyrmion is annihilated at the nanostrip edge to be increased, which leads to an increase in the maximum achievable velocities.
