The satisfactory explanation of anomalous electromagnetics in thin graphite-like carbon films till now is absent. The most comprehensible explanation may be the high-temperature superconductivity (HTSC). The pulse widths of spasmodic switching of electrical conductivity measured in this work in the graphite-like nanostructured carbon films, produced by methods of the carbon arc (CA) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD), are 1 and 2 ns correspondingly. Such fast switching completely excludes the thermal mechanism of the process. According to HTSC logic, in the time vicinity close to jump of electroresistance, it is necessary to expect the generation of optical radiation in the infrared (IR) range. This work presents the first results on registration of IR radiation caused by the sharp change of conductivity in thin graphite-like carbon films.
