Abstract
We report the magnetic properties, microstructures, and crystal orientations of the CrO$_2$ thin films on TiO$_2$ single crystals. CrO$_2$ thin films were deposited by thermal decompositions with CrO$_3$ source materials. The microstructure of (110) oriented CrO$_2$ thin films deposited on (110) TiO$_2$ single crystals were uniform. As the oxygen flow rates increased, the resistivity, coercive field, and remnant magnetization of the CrO$_2$ thin films on TiO$_2$ single crystals decreased.
