Abstract
The superconducting critical fields H(c2) of a some diamond-like films incorporating tungsten (WxC1-xSi, 0.22 < x < 0.28) having critical te mperatures between 2 and 4 K have been determined from resistivity mea surements. For the field perpendicular to the film H(c2) increases con tinuously as the temperature is decreased. At the lowest temperatures, the critical fields are greater than those expected for a normal type II superconductor. The probable origin of this effect lies in the amo rphous nature of the films.
