The structural phases of C:Ni nanocomposite thin films prepared by ion beam co‐sputtering at temperatures 25 °C ≤ θ S ≤ 500 °C were characterized by NIR Raman spectroscopy. Ni was found to catalyse sixfold ring clustering and graphitisation of carbon in C:Ni nanocomposites. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
