Studies of superfluid ³He confined to a submicron slab geometry

The phase diagram of superfluid 3He is predicted to be modified when confined to a regular geometry of size comparable to the superfluid coherence length. This thesis addresses the problem of the effect of such a small geometry on the order parameter of the superfluid. The samples are probed by two...
