| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Superfluid transition of liquid 3He confined in randomly networked porous glass with pore diameters equally sized to 100nm is studied by NMR measurement. The surface of pore is coated with a few layers of solid and liquid 4He. With thick coating of 4He, where the boundary condition is specular, the superfluid state of liquid 3He inside pores was similar to that of the bulk liquid. With thinner coating of 4He, where the boundary condition is diffusive, the superfluid transition temperature is increased by 30 micro K from that of bulk liquid. In this case, we find that a small fraction of solid 3He is mixed into the surface 4He layers. Large spin fluctuation in the solid, which is transferred to liquid 3He in the pores, may be the cause of the raise of transition temperature. We have succeeded in developing magnetic resonance imaging technique that can visualize textures in superfluid 3He.
