| Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) studies for two-dimensional magnetism.
Pulsed and CW NMR measurements on two-dimensional 3He films on both GTA Grafoil and HOPG ZYX graphite substrate at low applied field (<15 Gauss) and very low temperatures (0.3 mK to 20 mK).
Evidence were found for a finite temperature ferromagnetic ordering at zero applied field for two-dimensional 3He films, a model system for the study of two-dimensional magnetism.
The ordering of 3He films magnetic system is intrinsic due to long ranged dipolar interaction, not due to the substrate finite size effect.
