Epitaxial nitride films of CrxTi1−xN were grown on MgO (001) by pulsed laser deposition under nitrogen radical irradiation, and their magnetic and transport properties were investigated, which was motivated by calculations on magnetism pointing out similarities of CrN to LaMnO3, the parent compound of colossal magnetoresistance oxides. The films showed ferromagnetism for 0.28⩽x⩽0.5 and the TC showed a maximum (140K) at x=0.5. When x exceeded 0.5(x=0.58) ferromagnetism disappeared completely. At x=0.5, the nitride film showed a large magnetoresistance (6%–7% at 5T), which had a maximum at 130K.
