Quantum States of Helium Atoms Confined in Nanocage in Na-Y Zeolite
We have studied the heat capacities of heliums adsorbed in Na-Y zeolite down to 70 mK. The Y-type zeolite has void cages 1.3 nm in diameter connected through narrow apertures 0.8 nm in diameter. In the nanopor...

Vortex Diffusivity and Core Diameter of 2D Superfluid in 4He Films on Gold and H2 Substrates
The two-dimensional (2D) 4He fluid films show the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition where pairing and unpairing of the 2D vortices play an important role. However, the vortex properties (the diffusion constant

Helium Film Formed in 1.2 nm Pore in Zeolite Templated Carbon
We have measured the vapor pressure of 4He adsorbed in zeolite templated carbon (ZTC) at 4.2 K, in order to examine 4He film growth in the nanopore. ZTC has a framework made of non-stacked graphene, and has a rel...

One-Dimensional Phonon State of 4He Films Adsorbed in Straight Nanopores
We have studied heat capacities of 4He adsorbed in straight nanopores 1.8, 2.2, and 2.8 nm in diameter. Heat capacities of the 4He fluid film on the solid layer at 0.08–0.4 K show power laws close to T in 1.8 nm...

Possible 3He Boltzmann Gas Formed on Three-Dimensional Nanopores Preplated with 4He
We have measured the heat capacity of 3He adsorbed on three-dimensionally connected nanopores, 2.7 nm in diameter, preplated with about 1.3 atomic layers of 4He. At low coverages of 3He, the 3He heat capacity is...

Influence of Adsorption Potential on 3He Fluid States Formed on 4He-Preplated Substrates
From heat capacity measurements for 3He adsorbed on 4He-preplated mesopore in substrates, FSM-16, HMM-2, and Hectorite, we found fluid states of the 3He adatoms. At very dilute 3He densities, however, it strongly...

Adsorption Potentials and Film Growths of 4He in Nanometer Pores of FSM-16 (2.8 nm) and HMM-2 (2.7 nm)
To find the one- and the three-dimensionalities for the superfluid onset of the 4He films formed in nanopores, we have been studying 4He adsorbed on FSM-16 and HMM-2 that have pores of almost the same diameter, 2...

Superfluid State of 4He Films Adsorbed on 27 Å Pores in HMM-2
We have measured the superfluid density ρ s of 4He films adsorbed on the porous material HMM-2 by a torsional oscillator. The substrate has pores of 27 Å in diameter with ordered three-dimensional connectivity. ρ
