Abstract
We find that the composite Fermi sea at nu=1/2 is on the verge of an i nstability to tripler pairing of composite fermions. It is argued that a transition into the paired state, described by a Pfaffian wave func tion, may be induced if the short-range part of the interaction is sof tened by increasing the thickness of the two-dimensional electron syst em.
