Abstract

The review of structural, electronic and magnetic properties of nanographite films is presented. The superconducting correlations such as AC-to-DC conversion associated with the reversed Josephson Effect, pinning of vortices on columnar topological structure of film surface observed in atomic force and magnetic force microscope, non-zero current at zero voltage in scanning tunneling microscope in local area of nanographite film surface have been found. These results are broadly in line with other our observations on abrupt resistivity jump accompanied by light emission having potential applications as switchers and compact light emitter. Further experiments on studies of local conductivity related to ion irradiation hoping to find a zero resistance state are proposed.
