Especially the relation between sp3-content and graphitization temperature is interesting. I only know only one publication on this topic: G. Davies, T. Evans. Proc. R. Soc. London, 328 (1972), 413. Another suggestion would be helpfull.
Subject is old and well studied, I recommend studying it from the Raman spectrodcopy point of view. You can try for example:
The classical paper of Ferrari:

Bernard studies the relationship with temperature:

Time and temperature-dependent changes in the structural properties of tetrahedral amorphous carbon films

and more: http://booksc.org/s/?q=graphitization+temperature+tetrahedral+amorphous+carbon&t=0
An excellent book about the subject; Tribology of Diamond-Like Carbon Films;
