Abstract

Superconductivity in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is attracting considerable attention. Recently, we have reported successful boron doping into single-walled CNTs (SWNTs) and also revealed its correlation with superconductivity. In the present study, we report results of high-pressure magnetization measurements in films consisting of ropes of boron-doped SWNTs. It reveals that T_c and magnitude for Meissner effect are mostly independent of applied pressure, while the magnitude of graphite diamagnetism drastically increases as pressure increases. We also report the observation of resistance drop and correlation of boron doping with multi-walled CNTs, in which we reported superconductivity previously.
