Abstract
The phase diagrams of two nanoscaled thin films with site (or bond) dilution, described by the spin-1 (or spin-1/2) Ising model, are investigated by the use of the effective field theory with correlations. They are consisted of two layers. Some unique features have been found in the phase diagrams, while they show many similar behaviors for both the spin-1/2 films and the spin-1 films with a positive single-ion anisotropy. It is clarified that the unique behavior of critical concentration in the spin-1 system with site dilution and a positive single-ion anisotropy at which the transition temperature reduces to zero is completely equivalent to that in the spin-1/2 system with site dilution.
