F19nuclear relaxation at the interface between liquidHe3and a solid substrate at high field and low temperature

Abstract
Using NMR techniques, we have measured the rate at which F19 magnetization is relaxed at the surface of a fluorocarbon solid through contact to liquid He3. These measurements at millikelvin temperatures show that the relaxation rate continues to follow a power-law dependence over a broad range of F19 Larmor frequencies f (10136 MHz): 1T1S1f1.2. These results complement recent measurements by Maegawa et al. of the high-frequency He3 relaxation rate which is approximately proportional to f1.
