In this paper electro physical properties of samples of onion-like carbon have been investigated. Samples have been synthesized by method of thermal graphitization of nanodiamonds. 1D Mott variable-range hopping conductivity has been observed for temperature dependences of resistance of nanoonions volume samples at temperature range 4.2 K – 300 K. Also second-degree increase of positive magnetoresistance up to 6 tesla has been revealed. Some coefficients such as localization radius a, density of states on Fermi level N(EF) have been estimated.

Keywords:
Electrical resistance, magnetoresistance, onion-like carbon, nanoonions, 1D Mott variable-range hopping conductivity.
