The transport and magnetic properties were examined of thin films of the electron-doped manganite Ca1−xCexMnO3 (CCMO; 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.1) deposited on three different single-crystalline oxide substrates: YAlO3, NdAlO3, and LaSrAlO4, which subject the films to a compressive strain, a practical lattice matching, and a tensile strain, respectively. The temperature dependence of the activation energy extracted from the resistivity–temperature curves clearly indicated the phase transitions in the CCMO films. A comparison with magnetization measurements revealed that regardless of the substrates, the temperature-driven phase transition of the CCMO films changed from the G-type antiferromagnetic transition at x = 0 to the canted antiferromagnetic transition and to the charge- and/or orbital-ordered transition, as x was increased. In the canted antiferromagnetic phase, the epitaxial strains have significant impact not only on the transport properties but also on the magnetic properties such as the spontaneous magnetizat...
