Abstract: | We present capacitance measurements of the equilibrium thickness of (3)He-(4)He mixture films as a function of temperature and concentration. The films are adsorbed on a Cu substrate situated above bulk liquid mixture. As we scan across the tricritical point, we observe a thickening of the film indicating the presence of a repulsive critical Casimir force. |
