Recently we have reported room temperature ferromagnetism (FM) and in-plane magnetic anisotropy of single-crystalline rutile structures after high dose Co implantation [1]. From the observation of in-plane magnetic anisotropy we concluded that FM in this system results from incorporation of Co ions in the TiO₂ lattice, but co-existence with Co nanoclusters could not be excluded. To clarify this situation we studied the structural properties of Co-doped (100)-oriented rutile TiO₂ single crystals for different implantation doses. Co ions implanted into rutile TiO₂ substrates with energy of 40 keV and implantation dose in the range of 0.25-1.50·10¹⁷ ions/cm². The structural characterization was carried out using synchrotron radiation at the HASYLAB. The specular and off-specular reflectivity measurements probe the implanted Co density profile. In addition, with RBS the depth profile was determined and used for fitting the x-ray reflectivity data. This way a consistent and very good agreement of the fit to the x-ray reflectivity data could be achieved. - Partial support by SFB 491, by RFBR (grant 04-02-97505), and by TUBITAK (project 104T176) is acknowledged.
