Abstract
Intergranular magnetotransport effects are studied on polycrystalline manga nites. Reducing grain size through sol-gel technology allows us to show new results on these materials. Intrinsic colossal magnetoresistance is destro yed in metal-insulator phase transition for grain size smaller than 150 nm. In low temperature region, that is, T<30K, semiconductor resistivity behav ior indicates Coulomb blockade between grains.
