Magnetic and structural properties of amorphous and anatase TiO2 thin films implanted with Co ions have been investigated. Implantation induced defects have been characterized using positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) while for magnetic chracterization we have used magnetometry. Up to a doping level of 2.5 at.%, only a paramagnetic contribution has been detected. The susceptibility strength , however, depends on the structure of the unimplanted film. Results on the formation of secondary phases at higher doping level will also be presented.
