The phase transition, phase diagrams, and magnetizations of an Ising bilayer film with non-magnetic inter-layers are investigated by the use of the effective field theory with correlations. The system is consisted of two magnetic layers where upper and lower layers are consisted of spin-1/2 atoms and spin-1 atoms with a single-ion anisotropy. It is examined how the system may exhibit the tricritical behavior and some characteristic features of ferrimagnetism. The effects of non-magnetic layers on the magnetic properties are clarified.
