    Micrometric Ripplons for Structure Experiment

    Diffraction of micrometric ripplons in superfluid helium is proposed for probing the structure factor of a 2-dimensional electron system. Production and detection techniques for the ripplons are developped and.....

    Measurement of the surface tension of superfluid4He at low temperature by capillary wave resonances

    The surface tension of liquid4He is determined from the frequencies of micron wavelength capillary waves. The extrapolated zero temperature value, σ=375±3 μJm−2, is in agreement with the pioneering static capilla...

    Thermodynamic Measurement on the Melting of a Two-Dimensional Electron Solid

    The solid-liquid phase transition in two dimensions has proved to be a less simple problem than was once imagined. Even the simplest example of particles in a uniform two-dimensional (2D) space with repulsive ...

    Propagation of Shear in a Two-Dimensional Electron Solid

    A material is solid if it returns to its original shape upon removal of an applied shear stress. At finite frequency this property combines with inertia to give rise to shear waves. Shear waves are thus a fund...

    Co-tunneling of the charge through a 2-D electron island

    A double barrier Single Electron Transistor is realized in two dimensions by confining the 2-D electron gas of a GaAs/GaAlAs heterojunction to a small island by means of Schottky gates. Two gates provide adjus...

    Low Wavevector Phonons in the 2-Dimensional Electron Solid on Liquid Helium

    Electrons trapped at the liquid-vapour (essentially vacuum) interface of helium at low temperatures make an ideally simple system of particles in interaction: two-dimensional motion with very small non-uniform...

    Electrons on a dielectric liquid-vapor interface. Stability in presence of normal magnetic field

    The capillary wavelength instability of a charged liquid surface due to coupling between surface deformation and charge compression may be modified by altering the transport properties of the charges along the...
