We demonstrate that two phases CrO2 and Cr2O3 oxides can be grown by using laser initiated deposition (laser-induced Organic-Metallic Chemical Vapor Deposition (LMOCVD) and laser-induced deposition from solution (LISD), whose mechanism is similar to the first one but in solution and LISD has both advantages of chemical vapor deposition and electroless deposition). The magnetization measurements show that both chromium oxides are presented, and the relative weight of each phase depends on the experimental conditions such as oxygen partial pressure. 4, record 5, English, - chromium%20oxide
