A microelectromechanical oscillator with a gap of 1.25 $\mu$m was immersed in superfluid $^3$He-B and cooled below 250 $\mu$K at various pressures. Mechanical resonances of its shear motion were measured at various levels of driving force.…
The mechanical resonance properties of a micro-electro-mechanical oscillator with a gap of 1.25 $\mu$m was studied in superfluid $^3$He-B at various pressures. The oscillator was driven in the linear damping regime where the damping…
We have measured the interaction between superfluid $^3$He-B and a micro-machined goalpost-shaped device at temperatures below $0.2\,T_c$. The measured damping follows well the theory developed for vibrating wires, in which the Andreev…
Topological superfluid $^3$He, with unconventional spin-triplet p-wave pairing, provides a model system for topological superconductors, which have attracted significant interest through potential applications in topologically protected…
High resolution measurements of the specific heat of liquid $^{3}$He in the presence of a silver surface have been performed at temperatures near the superfluid transition in the pressure range of 1 to 29 bar. The surface contribution to…
Vibrating probes when immersed in a fluid can provide powerful tools for characterising the surrounding medium. In superfluid 3He-B, a condensate of Cooper pairs, the dissipation arising from the scattering of quasiparticle excitations from…
The B phase of superfluid $^\textrm 3$He ($^\textrm 3$He-B) is topologically nontrivial and the surface Andreev bound states formed on a surface are conceived as Majorana fermions. In a magnetic field, the surface Andreev bound states…
We have studied the power dependence of superfluid Helmholtz resonators in flat (750 and 1800 nm) rectangular channels. In the A-phase of superfluid 3He, we observe a non-linear response for velocities larger than a critical value. The…
Oscillations on free surface of superfluids at the inviscid limit are damped by quasiparticle scattering. We have studied this effect in both superfluids $^3$He and $^4$He deep below the respective critical temperatures. Surface oscillators…
We theoretically investigate the role of surface Andreev bound states (SABSs) on the phase diagram and spin susceptibilities of superfluid 3He confined to a restricted geometry. We first explicitly derive the dispersion of the SABS in 3He-B…
Measurements of the order parameter texture of rotating superfluid 3He-B have been performed as a function of the applied azimuthal counterflow velocity down to temperatures of 0.2Tc. The results are compared to the hydrostatic theory of…
Measurements are presented of the thermomechanical coefficient of normal liquid He-3 confined in a porous plug pre-plated with four monoloyers of He-4. These non-magnetic monolayers displace the magnetic solid-like He-3 monolayers that are…
Subgap structure in the surface bound states spectrum of Superfluid $^3$He-B with rough surface is discussed. The subgap is formed by the level repulsion between the surface bound state and the continuum states in the course of multiple…
Superfluidity in $^3$He exhibits many unique properties that are of interest to modern condensed matter research, including multiple superfluid phase transitions, topological defects, and exotic classes of excitations like Majorana and Weyl…
By using the diffusion Monte Carlo method, we obtained the full phase diagram of $^3$He on top of graphite preplated with a solid layer of $^4$He. All the $^4$He atoms of the substrate were explicitly considered and allowed to move during…
Nuclear magnetic resonance measurements of the magnetic susceptibility of superfluid $^3$He imbibed in anisotropic aerogel reveal anomalous behavior at low temperatures. Although the frequency shift clearly identifies a low-temperature…
This paper reviews the confinement-driven phase transitions, and the prediction of superfluid phases with broken time-reversal or translational symmetry in thin films. The new phases are a result of particle-hole coherent Andreev scattering…
Superfluid $^4$He (He-II) is a widely studied model system for exploring finite-size effects in strongly confined geometries. Here, we study He-II confined in mm-scale channels of 25 and 50 nm height at high pressures using a nanofluidic…
Motivated by recent experiments on superfluid $^3$He in nanoscale-confined geometries, we theoretically investigate the associated phase diagram in a slab geometry and perpendicular magnetic field as the size of confinement is varied. Our…
Superfluids, such as superfluid $^3\mathrm{He}$ and $^4\mathrm{He}$, exhibit a broad range of quantum phenomena and excitations which are unique to these systems. Nanoscale mechanical resonators are sensitive and versatile force detectors…
