Abstract

The magnetoresistance of thin graphite single crystals with columnar defects has been studied. The field-periodic contribution to the magnetoresistance with a period of 7.5 T has been revealed. The atomic force microscope estimation of the columnar defect diameter shows that the period of the contribution oscillatory as a function of the flux is close to hc/e per defect. The result agrees with the measurements of Aharonov-Bohm magnetoresistance oscillations in graphene mesoscopic rings [S. Russo et al., Phys. Rev. B 77, 085413 (2008)].
