Angular magnetoresistance in semiconducting undoped amorphous carbon thin films

摘要

Thin films of undoped amorphous carbon thin film were fabricated by using Chemical Vapor Deposition and their structure was investigated by using High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy and Raman Spectroscopy. Angular magnetoresistance (MR) has been observed for the first time in these undoped amorphous carbon thin films in temperature range of 2 ～ 40 K. The maximum magnitude of angular MR was in the range of 9.5% ～ 1.5% in 2 ～ 40 K. The origin of this angular MR was also discussed.
