Abstract

We measured the mechanical response of 3He and 4He bilayer films on a 2D mesoporous Hectorite from 0.1 K to 4 K using 10MHz ultrasound. Below a certain coverage, we observed the slippage of nonsuperfluid films at low temperatures. This behavior was well described by a film-substrate frictional force with a thermally activated process. Furthermore, we found that this slippage is inhibited by the appearance of the fluid state on the “inert” layer.
