Superlattices of (LaMnO₃)_2n/(SrMnO₃)_n (LMO/SMO, n=6) and (La₂CoMnO₆)_2n/(SrMnO₃)_n (LCMO/SMO, n=5) on SrTiO₃ (001) were prepared by a metalorganic aerosol deposition technique (MAD). A high structural quality of samples was evidenced by XRD, XRR and TEM. SQUID magnetization measurements for the LMO/SMO SLs clearly show two ferromagnetic (FM) phases with T_C1≈ 230K and T_C2=358K. The low-temperature phase is likely located in the LMO layers. The high-temperature FM phase might originate from the LMO/SMO interface due to the electron transfer across the interface. No high-T_C phase and no interfacial charge transfer was found in LCMO/SMO. By introducing a LMO buffer layer with sufficient thickness (6 ML) between both interfaces the high temperature interfacial FM phase can be restored. Financial support of the EU FP7 (Project *IFOX*) and SFB 1073 (TPB04) is acknowledged.
