La0.14Pr0.56Sr0.3MnO3/SrTiO3 and La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/Gd0.7Ca0.3MnO3 multilayers have been fabricated by using pulsed laser deposition. The insulator-metal transition temperatures of the multilayers decrease with the decreasing thickness of the ferromagnetic layers. It is confirmed from the experiment and analysis that a nonferromagnetic insulating region exists near the interface, which could not be attributed to the roughness of the growth surfaces and disorder of the ferromagnetic layers.
