Abstract
We have investigated the adsorption of4He onto a quench-condensed H2 film by means of surface state electrons. Oscillations in the surface state electron conductivity clearly reveal the layerwise character of the adsorption. At temperatures below 2K we have observed an anomaly in the conductivity around the completion of the first monolayer. This new feature is interpreted as an indication of a liquid-to-solid phase transition in the first layer.
