Abstract
We compare magnetoresistive properties of epitaxial and polycrystalline La1 -xMnO3 films. The difference between these two types of films is explained in terms of polarized electron scattering on grain boundaries. We suggest t hat similar mechanism may be responsible for the high field magnetoresistiv ity near the insulator-metal transition in both types of films.
