Abstract

Structural and textural changes in carbon films prepared from the polyimide Kapton with heat-treatment temperatures up to 3000 °C were followed by measuring the magnetoresistance at 77 K, the ratio of electrical resistivity at room temperature to that at 77 K, and x-ray powder patterns. The maximum magnetoresistance (Δρ/ρ)max as a measure of graphitization changed its sign from negative to positive around 2500 °C and then increased its value abruptly. The resistivity ratio ρR.T.77 K increased above 2500 °C treatment. The values of (Δρ/ρ)max and ρR.T.77 K after 3000 °C treatment reached 275% and 0.93, respectively. The average interlayer spacing d002 after the 3000 °C treatment was 0.3354 nm, the same as natural graphite. The changes in structure and texture in the film were consistent with the model proposed in the previous paper from observation by transmission electron microscopy.
