Pulsed NMR measurements of the susceptibility and the transverse and longitudinal relaxation times of 3 He intermixed with 9 nm of carbon particles have been performed down to 0.4 mK. The results indicate that the first atomic layer has an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction. The intermediate solid-liquid region, ~ 5 atomic layers thick, favors ferromagnetism and approaches a ferromagnetic transition at the lowest temperatures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
