The magnetotransport properties of CrO2 films down to single-grain sizes have been investigated. The magnetoresistance of highly grain oriented CrO2 (100) films, deposited onto TiO2 (100) substrates using a high pressure cell, has been measured in the temperature range of 1.5–300 K and in magnetic fields up to 6 T. The difference in the magnetoresistance at the low temperature of these samples is related to the value of the residual resistance ratio (RRR=R273 K/R4.2 K) of the samples. The negative magnetoresistance observed in some of these films is likely due to defects (disorder) in the CrO2 crystal. We observed a large positive longitudinal magnetoresistance in the CrO2 sample when it was measured with the current perpendicular to the c axis. The nature of the large value of the longitudinal magnetoresistance may be related to the complex configuration of the Fermi surface of CrO2.
