Phase separation in manganites leads to unique magnetic and electronic properties. 50% Ca-doped LaMnO₃ (LCMO), at the boundary of ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) states in La_1-xCa_xMnO₃ (0 ≤ x ≤ 1), is an ideal system to study phase separation behavior. The investigation reveals the effect of a 5d-metal perovskite SrIrO₃ (SIO) on the phase separation, magnetic, and magnetoresistance (MR) properties of LCMO. Single-layer and bilayer LCMO films, both appear purely ferromagnetic along the in-plane (IP) magnetic field direction, but show the tendency of temperature-dependent ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic or charge-ordered (CO) phase separation with the out-of-plane (OOP) applied field. The MR, and colossal magnetoresistance (CMR), observed in LCMO/SIO bilayers are two orders and an order of magnitude (in %) larger, respectively than that in the single-layer film. The coexistence of FM and AFM/CO phases is responsible for the CMR and MR enhancement in the LCMO/SIO bilayer, pointing toward the importance of the phase separation and competition of both the individual materials in enhancing their magnetic and electronic properties.
