Anomalous Electromagnetics of Carbon Condensates in the Light of Ideas of a High-Temperature Superconductivity

Abstract

The anomalies of electromagnetic properties of carbon condensates are discussed. Basic attention has been done to electromagnetic properties of thin carbon films produced by means of sputtering of spectral pure graphite in electrical arc (CA films). The room temperature rf-to-dc conversion associated with the ac Josephson effect, the jumps of conductivity stipulated by variation of current and temperature and zero spin density can be pointed among the anomalous properties of CA films. The number of basic hypotheses are presented in trying to explain this anomalies. As the main hypothesis the high temperature superconductivity is considered. As alternative the analogy with the chalcogenide glasses, fluctuation conductivity, etc. can be considered.
